This is provably incorrect. I'm enjoying 3.0 gathering and crafting. Whether I am speed-gathering for Favor mats or rolling the dice in a 2-star craft, I am having fun. And thank goodness there's a scrip cap, or my IRL job might be at risk.

Therefore 3.0 crafting is subjectively going good, from my point of view. And like spicy food, if something is subjectively good to some and subjectively bad to others, then it is impossible for it to be objectively good or bad.

Sure, 3.0 crafting is different from 2.0 crafting, like habanero chili peppers are different from green peppers, so people who liked one might not like the other. But it's just a matter of taste, not of objective good or bad.
