Again. Nothing that is part of an AH cannot be implemented in the MArket Wards system. On the other hand, several features in the market wards system cannot be replicated by an AH.

More options -> better.
Why not just program something that can be done from a centralized UI element? Why waste my time with loading and walking to a person with a star over their head? I'd rather walk up to a counter, and look at a list... and make a purchase.

Would you like to know what part of an AH cannot be implemented in a Market Ward system?

Convenience.
