I think it's more they completely destroyed Materia has a currency and had no idea what else to stuff in loot boxes for Bozja. What's truly baffling is they didn't put Fragments in there.

As for the OP itself. Crafting as a whole became substantially easier this expansion both in endgame recipes and leveling. The result is far more supply and nowhere near enough demand. The devs seem to actively dislike high sale prices without realizing that was what many higher end crafters enjoy. Hence why Expert Recipes didn't work. That, and the grind is absurd for absolutely nothing.
