Should all my characters have use DoH and gathering?

I will never understand the multiple character players, so much effort and issues just to repeat content. a bunch of masochist. lol

Ehhhh it's altaholism. I have 5 alts I derp around on sometimes. It's not just RPers; sometimes you want to play with a different group of friends on another server, or see the game through a different set of eyes, so to speak. And now with the Specialist option at 56+ crafting, everyone who split up their crafters has a legitimate reason to do so.

Because i wanted more than one character.

Ehhhh it's altaholism.

Plenty of games have more than one playble character, even though they go through the same playthrough with the same items. Dragon's Crown, Devil May Cry 4: SE, Sonic Heroes and others aren't considered "altaholism" so why is this game?

I just wanted answers to my question, not players telling me how to play the game "their way."

You need to max all the crafting classes on one character for cross class skills if you want to be a competent crafter. If you don't care about that though I don't see a problem with what people have already suggested.

This. If you want to be able to craft high quality items reliably at higher levels, you will need to have all (or most) crafts to level 50+ on one character for cross class skills.
