It really doesn't seem like a difficult problem to fix; just increase synergy yield and put firesand at a low price on an NPC vendor.
They HAVE made good on their promise to increase the flow of ingots, but they way in which they've done it (random "bust" rewards from events that give crafting materials and Abyssea gold boxes) has made this increase in supply so erratic that the people getting them are encouraged to vend them all and the RNGs/CORs don't get to see any benefit.
