While I somewhat disagree (but only because it's been this way for so long) I don't understand how you can say "Transmog from bank is OK, but crafting doesn't make sense"? Hell Transmog itself by your logic "doesn't make sense".
@Everyone Else, when people say "QoL change, much needed", why have the need to goto town/visit anyone ever? I mean if you don't need items to be on your person to craft an item, why do you need to visit a trainer? Why do you need to goto an Auctioneer to post auctions? Hell, we get magically transported to far away dungeons on the fly the way it is....
When you try to use a "realism" aspect in a game that clearly defies "realism" it gets a little wierd.
