    Well the Idea of Using materia in a consumable would hopefully accelerate the aim of having turnover of Crafted items. Since with every Gulp what was once a weapon or armor goes poof. With the added benifit of some Potion customization, plus failure risk.

    Materia out of circulation from:
    Failed Potion Enchancement - Materia Gone
    Potion Use - Materia Gone
    Failed Meldingand attachment - Materia Gone

    The problem with Having materia as an Armor/weapon only item is that most people aren't going to take the high risk of losing the materia and item on a fail for high benefits. A glance at the attached items in Uldah markets gives a snapshot. almost all have 1 materia attached.

    If you place materia "into" a potion you can actually even up the sucsess rate because once it is in a potion, you KNOW at some point someone will sip it, and materia gone! Since its a consumable it won't be re-sold forever.

    More stable materia use that then leaves the system making room for more materia to be made. so more potions can be sipped, etc will add extra value to potion crafters but all other crafts aswell.

    Edit: Also may add some Value to materia itself besides the top level versions. Which measn even new players and vets can perhaps make some change, since at 18 you could convert and start selling some Materia.
