Still, I agree. Harvesters should get leves separate from battle.
I do agree, not everyone might use all 8 crafting leves, I know I do because I'm addicted to crafting but this might (and probably isn't) not be the case for everyone. But at least crafters have the option to do so if they wish, gatherers don't even get that option.

But I can't do so with the other fieldcrafts.the travel time alone makes it slower to rank up botany or mining. Not to mention that the speed up abilities do not effect nodes 200 yalms or less.
Yep, totally agree with you.
