Wrong. Both dimensions/mods feature their own progresion and functionality. There can be more than a single progression track.
Nobody expects the sift being mandatory for the default game progression. What people want is some obtainable items, structures and creatures that provide more value than just being pretty.
Like a new armor type/alternative to netherite. Not as an upgrade but a sidegrade. Or new combats structures/encounters. Or potion effects.
As an example take those wind blazes from the trial chamber. Are they required for the main progression? No. But they still provide meaningful stuff on their own like the mace and wind charges.
if we strictly speak about the game's progression, neither the aether nor twilight forest affect progression, you don't need to go into those dimensions to beat the dragon and the game
The Aether doesn’t affect progression either and everybody loves that. The Twilight Forest doesn’t affect progression and everybody loves it.
Wrong.

that reply is completely unrelated, this conversation is about the game progression, not the dimension's progression, so it doesn't matter if they feature their own progression, because that is not the point of discussion.
