Again, the trouble with this is that it doesn't simply penalize low-level forager, but everyone else as well, as they deplete resources without any benefit. It's the same problem that ores crumbling brings to the table.

Double reagent pick ups is weak and scarcity is a good thing for the economy.
Double reagent pick-ups would be very rewarding for high-level foragers, depending on the rate. Scarcity is only good for the economy to a certain point, as well, and we've clearly passed that point into making an entire previously valued potion completely obsolete due to how few ky'iah spawns there are.
Perhaps if ky'iah weren't also used for mana amnesias then alchemists would make blackouts and reap the rewards of the massively over-inflated value they likely have by this point, but they barely have enough to keep up with amnesia demand at this point, and it's doubtful most people would be willing to pay market value for blackouts anyways.
