So the only way to progress our DoH/DoL tools will be Cosmic Exploration?

see people? this is why we don't get content
people don't want to do content to get the stuff they want
they just want to craft\ buy mats with tomes \ scrips, hand over and be done

You obviously did neither Skysteel nor Splendorous because that's pretty much how both of them were done. There were materials you had to buy with scrips for crafting and things to gather in expansion zones for gathering. This has absolutely nothing to do with not wanting to do content to get what people want. It has to do with SE tying things to certain content that don't need to be tied to them.
