How would they be a problem if you simply prevented them from leeching and left them to their own devices? It would only be a problem if you gave a damn about them, which some people do apparently.

I've actually put some thought regarding the recipes, and is the request to make them public really that nonsensical?

Of course if you took it from a real world perspective you'd probably think so, but from a gaming perspective, when you consider how fast information spread through the internet, just how much do you think it would take before a crafting recipe is discovered to the day where it is publicly made available to everyone?

I can think of several situation in MMORPGs where people could benefit by keeping their discoveries secret and certainly many people do, but then there's always someone who decides to publicize them, and it only takes one person.

This applies to secret recipes, or to secret hunting spots, or to hidden quests and more often strategies to kill powerful end game monsters.
The current situation in Akiba could be simply the result of a lesser degree of information spread due to the sudden lack of internet.

In the end the recipe issue comes down to a matter of intellectual property. If you think that's communism, then every kind of file sharing is. Not like nobody ever suggested that.
