Today they are better for Expert. If these tools wind up like the ShB tools, the finished product will be 20 iLvl above. However, after pentamelds, they are about the same. The crafted tool lets you customize how much craft/control/cp you want. A player could get more control on the crafted tool than the skybuilders tool. However, the skybuilders tool does have better overall stats.

In any case, if a player isn't doing expert crafts, you don't need these tools. Not just because of the Good bonus on touches. Rather, it is because of the nature of how crafting works. You can't get to 110% HQ, so everything over 100% is a waste.
