I agree with you, It would be a much better system if they all had to do something too. They also already have the solution as they could do something similar to what they did with synergy in FFXI. With all players actually receiving exp towards their craft(scrips if capped).

To be honest the workshop is another failed idea brought from 11. It's like they looked at synergy and started to copy it and thought nah too complicated just add four people. It's the same with Diadem (Abbysea without the fun) or Palace of the Dead(Nyzul Isle without anything interesting).
