I thought I read about something being in place to that effect but I haven't noticed anything, personally.

It would make getting high quality on tough, high level synths challenging and rewarding and let lower level synths stay relevant for a little bit longer, and maybe make leveling a craft more interesting.
I like this idea. To accompany it perhaps a reward to go alongside increased XP gain could be that one or more of the materials you used to craft the item would not be consumed by the synthesis, allowing you to make another if you have more of the materials that were consumed. Or perhaps you are reimbursed the elemental shards/crystals the synthesis required.

Though it would hinder gathering classes and then market prices of materials would probably go up.

Just a thought though.
