Yes I rather enjoy needing specifically died sleeves and checkered pants to make something, instead of you know...base items with the abillity to dye afterwards or something.

Many recipes are needlessly complicated. Turning nuggets, to ingots, to rings is fine and dandy, thats just a process. But needing "Grey" Chainmail sleeves and "Blue" rivits is anoying as hell.
