I guess I still have a lot of work to do on other crafts before I can do this, hehe

I'll add an alternate, simple Hasty Touch to offset my previous no Hasty Touch one, since most of the time Hasty Touch will come out ahead... the RNG just irks me at times.
Basically after Inner Quiet pop Waste Not before Steady Hand (II, if available), then Hasty Touch x 5, which'll put you at 5 Durability. Manipulation > SH > depending on CP you can either Hasty Touch or Basic Touch followed by two Great Stride touches (or if you're low, a non Great Strides ST into a Great Strides touch). On average it boosts control significantly more for those final Great Stride touches off of Inner Quiet due to more touch attempts (Hasty Touch RNG aside), but being unlucky will yield worse results than being unlucky with a non-HT method.
Hasty Touch is usually better if you can't guarantee 100% quality without it, but sometimes it feels like I have to pay more attention to the craft - likely because I have to check CP partway through rather than just at the end to see how many Observes I can use.

I would say get all the crafting classes but armorer to 15 at least then you can continue on weaver to 50 using my method. That's what I did as weaver was my first 50.
If you get all classes to 15 (except ARM), you won't really need to HQ mats to get an HQ finished item while leveling even without Byregot's. However, Steady Hand II is almost a must for that, unless you can stomach a 70% Hasty Touch. WVR was my first 50 and I did it without SHII, but it was a little frustrating. Now it's fairly trivial to level a DoH class.
I may be mistaken (and someone correct me if I'm wrong), but you don't really need Ingenuity II. Ingenuity already brings synths down to 3 even for 2-star items (with Careful Synthesis II). I don't think Ingenuity II drops it down any more.
EDIT: I see you're at 41 BSM, so might as well get it. LMK if it changes anything!
