However the case, there is merit in what you say. You may still have a way to go to demonstrate that merit clearly, though.
im looking at it dispassionately, the only real advantage i see to crafters double inlaying, is something new for them to do, but it doesnt outweigh the inherent advantages of controlling the final product. Before when they said the items would be rare ex it wasnt so bad, but now that it wont be, crafters will not be happy not taking a big peice of a rare item even when they contibute minimally.

There is no logical reason why there shouldnt be an npc option. Why do you or anyone else think there should not be one?
