Like even ARR light step understood that more effort should give more but relics=tomestones basically amounts to “do your daily’s then spam hunt trains”, sure you CAN do EO but the rate of tomes from EO is so hilariously low as an example it’s not an incentive or a pick you own adventure, it’s a pity reward for doing something you were already going to do even if you didn’t have a relic to make
People wanted things to grind. You either have a system where:

1) Fate trains to grind, nothing else.
Or
2) Tome grind, which can be fate/hunt trains for optimal output, or other things.

Like, I'm not saying every activity behind tomes is especially stellar, but I can't see a world where 1) would even prove superior to 2) in any regard. I'd certainly like them to give us more engaging systems to make relics with, but at least with tomes I can grind them however the fuck I want.
