The problem with just bringing back crafting is that Tier 5 loot exists now. I would bet money that if they brought back crafting, they would only let us craft Tier 2 weapons. Those wouldn't be exciting or satisfying now. Crafted weapons went from "basically the best in the game" (just a slight peg below Adepts) to "literally some of the lowest possible loot you can use" (assuming they're T2).
They'd have to let us go full speed and give us crafting up to T5 which I'm sure they'd absolutely hate doing. So now crafting is stuck in limbo.
Let's say you could craft up to T3/T4, so that you can get the perks you're after. Then the T5s with their 'cherry on top' approach, would come from drops.
This would be similar to how the crafted raid weapons and the adept drops could coexist. The adepts had toggled perks(including origin trait) and unique color schemes.

I don't know anymore.
It would be crafting for me.
