I agree with Solarra, crafting is among if not the easiest class to level up nowadays. You have access to firmament, leves, and dailies. You hit Lv50+ in a heartbeat (or 70 if you go to firmament)
Old skool is the retro way of saying old School in case you didn't know

If forcing buffs to furniture was wrong then SE made the mistake before, not me xD
I think the point is to persuade crafters to try it since success feels a lot better then failiure. I've met a LOT of people who gave up on something simply cuss they couldn't succeed on the first try.
So yes I think SE thought this through very well. I'm only hoping they'll do something with it seeing as its much outdated at this point.

Remember that this game is huge and it takes a while before you know about it all... heck it took me longer then a year to find out about the leves just cuss I kept getting distracted with the story, quests and other content.
So I can imagine more players just like me "ignore" crafting for a long time simply cuss they think its too slow, too gil consuming and too hard. Some people simply do it manual cuss they lack the information they need which isn't always easy to find.

So I think both types of players (knowing & ignorant) should have some type of support. For me it for example took me getting level 80 on my crafter before I learned of the leves... I leveled manually and spent a LOT of gil since gathering was to slow for me... so I bought the materials and started crafting
