    Well, there really are multiple factors to this, but first we should compare like to like. Use the same models and formulas and stuff.

    i240 crit/det: .233:.175 -> 1.33142857
    i210 crit/det: .159:.129 -> 1.23255814 (3.2 potencies)
    i210 crit/det: .154:.124 -> 1.24193548 (3.07 potencies)

    So it appears Determination didn't grow as fast, but it's not as grim as all that. Another thing is that Critical scales exponentially and monks get a lot of crits.

    Also, to a minor extent, this i240 set does have slightly more crit in the secondary stat budget going by proportions (I'm going to tentatively propose that the ridiculous skill speed robs primarily from Determination).

    Which isn't bad per say, considering in A5S there are several breaks and in A6S/A8S we can see there are small gaps for you to recover tp in.

    Also, you can get dem goads/tp machinists.
    Yeah, it's not bad. It's horrible! No level of skill speed makes up for Stax. Not with fights this jumpy.
