Abyz, I'm not even sure you really played on UOSA. These were not that hard to come by, even with the 1:500 chance on newbie tinker creation. If they were a blessed key, and a plat reward costing 1000p, the chance that 'everyone and their mother' would have them is slim to none. Granted, it is pretty Trammel but if you could only copy a single door a single time, it would be really only used by players who have spent a long time farming up that platinum and have a home that they are certain they'll never be without. It keeps a modicum of risk tied to an item that would otherwise be easy to obtain.
I have only two accounts right now. I could very easily setup a third account and just make five new tinkers a week, and believe me, I'd end up with plenty of them. Just as Jack stated, with proxies, we'd end up with a glut of abandoned accounts and newbie characters bloating save times. Thus, making it something to strive for that still has a level of risk tied to it, would be the only way I could see it making sense on a shard of this style.
All told, would be just as happy never seeing them exist at all but blessed would be more fair to all play styles, instead of newbied.
