I have to disagree with your interpretation of the skill. Leatherworking is very low level (8) and has been provided to give everyone a chance to improve their own equipment very slightly. It is the same as the tailoring skill, also a low level skill and also for improving personal items.
It is not meant as a replacement for higher level druid carving but instead as an opportunity for all classes and levels to get a small amount of benefit for their eq. I think this shows actually a great deal of knowledge into how to balance the game. It is unreasonable to expect that a skill that is available to all classes level 8 and above is going to allow you to improve equipment to a standard that would be profitable to sell or make your character super extra powerful.

They have proven, time and time again that they have no clue what they are doing. For instance: the leatherworking skill. Great idea in concept; create items and carve on them, perhaps for personal use or for sale to other players. There is only one serious difficulty: the items in question bind to your character. If you check the help file (and I just did to verify this) there is no indication that when you use leatherworking that the item will bind to that character. Had I known this from the start, I would not have wasted the pracs on the skinning and leatherworking skills. Also, arguing that no one would take pick locks if Knock worked as it ought is faulty logic.
