Which is funny because Savage and Extreme has been getting easier and easier.
Inno Ex is literally the "dodge aoes" the fight where it has no waymarks and Tit Ex is literally "make sure to not cleave people with the big red glowing orb attached to you".
Hades Ex is a lot easier than Thordin Ex on release as well.

Savage was also made easier that they made Ultimate for people who wanted old Savage difficulty.
If you compare e4s with a8s, or e3s with a3s, a8s and a3s has 5+ phases all with very tight mechanics.
Meanwhile E1s is literally E1N, but with no aoe indicators. Even the orb phase in normal is harder than Savage.

That's not really a bad thing though. They have been trying to get people into Savage, which is good.
Why not gather a group of people to do Savage blind OP? With how few people actually do Savage, there's no shortage of people to do it blind with.
