I'm honestly amazed SE hasn't nerfed the NPC sellable items from subs, nor have they just made the workshop available to all housing. At least they TRIED something with FC airships getting access to a special diadem zone back in the day, but it was really unpopular and disappeared pretty quickly.
I own a large with high level subs and airships and I kind of have a hot take:

Workshops were a mistake and shouldn't be limited to housing at all. They've ruined FC wards because they're so lucrative that it's worth the effort to make multiple alt FCs and buy as many houses as possible for more of them, and extending that to personal housing would just make it easier. There should be an unlockable workshop elsewhere in the game that's available to all players with housing workshops being more of a convenience than anything.
