One more comment for today - it would seem to me that at some point (meaning class rank equal to or exceeding recipe rank - pick a number 5/10 ranks, I don't care) that recipes suggesting that upper tier support would help, would no longer apply. I've had recipes 15 ranks below me almost fail because I didn't run or tele to Gridania to get T3 support. It's ridiculous to have to get support for, say buffalo leather @ R46, which, incidently, I got 8 SP per synth.

Also, those leve's requiring upper tier support in cities where it's not available should be moved or removed.
