I guess that the logic is that no matter what you've been doing, to meet the DoH/DoL requirements takes a lots of time and effort so you're presumed to be reasonably well-rounded and knowledgeable about the game in general by the point you qualify. Except it kind of flies against the justification for the battle class requirements in every way. I'm sort of the opposite of you as I love gathering but can't stand fishing, and everything you say in this post makes perfect sense. I think the only questions I had when I started fishing (botany and mining are so self-evident that there were none) were just about finding specific low level fish which isn't really something a mentor is required for :s
