Why make Miner and Botanist any harder to get skyward points?

Just read the bolted part above that again.

They are only reducing the points you recieve for the old items. You will likely get the usual amount of points for the new items they added with this patch.

Ah, I see! Thank you very much!
So basically, they're discouraging people to gather Phase 2 stuff, but encouraging people to gather Phase 3 stuff instead. That makes sense!
I certainly hope that MIN/BTN will have a easier time in Phase 3. Phase 2 had been very harsh with Skyward points for these jobs!
