well you got a point, smelters tanners, alchemists. and others, do not bring much value.
i wonder if just removing all the crafters might work, and make them all fighters, with some of them able to get perks that can apply bonuses to benches?
lol, and of course, they had not said anythin about the cap, that tells me 2 possible likely scenarios
-
they dont want to say anything because the thrall cap will be lowered and will bring more publicly comdenation of the move.
-
they will keep the current count and not say anything because they know people will be affected in a negative way due to crafter now being part of your pool and also affect in a negative way.
-
if they were to increase the cap they would have said so already… pr is not very smart but they do have a survival instinct XD lol.
