Same for diadem, and maybe add a 2nd action to aetheromatic auger that only give you the expert materials of each grade ?

There are a lot more QoL that would be nice but I'll stop here because theses wouldn't "lessen" the value of the achievement of people who did in when it was ongoing : they went there ang got full point/bonus values.
Why should you get a bigger reward now at level 90 than the reward that was given to those who did those achievements on a delay at level 80? The difficulty back then was significantly higher. Crafters couldn't macro. Gatherers were lucky to get a +2 on Bountiful Harvest/Yield and had no Gatherer's Boon for an additional passive increase. You've already gotten QoL improvements by being level 90 and getting those advantages that we lacked in Shadowbringers.

On the gathering side, there's no significant difference to the scrip earned because gathering was always more about the time investment than gear or skill. It's only for crafting that there's the huge difference in scrip earned - same as it was during phase 4 of the Restoration.

If you want the achievements, do them. If you want the scrip, there's always the normal level 80 recipes.
