If it can be done before end game, its likely not an end-game task; though more and more games are doing time-locked tradeskilling that you can do at lower levels but only benefit you at max level, because time-locked means fun! or something silly.
What has been established? It is not the way I define it. Time to drop it folks. You can't change the world. Stop trying.
