Thanks a lot for posting this as well as an ETA.

We have finally identified the cause of this bug.
In certain cases some types of crafting data was being "lost" in the process: and this impacts the armorsmiths and tailoring the most (but I wouldn't be surprised if it hasn't been causing a few other oddball crafting problems here and there as well).
We're planning on a hotfix to be delivered to you between publish 21 and publish 22.

Hope this fixes Health Enhancers so we can finally complete the Mando suit!

In particular, I think we would be interested in knowing whether this bug affects the colors of factory crated items. Currently, a bug exists such that the colors of factory produced garments and armor are "lost" and the items come out random colors. Hopefully, it is the same bug and it will be fixed as well.

I'm working on collecting a list of systems that will be impacted (and by "impacted", I mean "fixed") by this change. It's a bug in a fairly low-level utility function that many different things referenced. Data was being recorded in one format and retrieved in a different format (which resulted in the data not being retrieved at all: "Aha, zero again!"). So fixing it will fix a lot of things that were relying on that function to work.
I'll post an update when I have more info.
I'd be careful because I know four tailors on Tempest that might clobber you with kisses, therefore preventing all further work.

Because if we hotfix it now, it will crash into publish 21, causing both the publish and the hotfix to explode.

Why not hotfix now?
I am going to be ungreatful since i'm paying for this game and i've been getting pretty poor service from it.
Why the delay in implementation of this hotfix.
Of course i'll be the one with egg alllll over my face when it's deployed Friday

Besides, we haven't tested it yet! What would happen if they put the hotfix in and we suddenly couldn't make hawtpants?

I'm glad to hear you are finally fixing this, we are rappidly approaching its 2 month anniversary, but I still fail to understand what the big mystery was regarding this bug (we can tell you to the day when it was introduced and what changes were made on that day, ergo finding the root cause should have been a very simple process of elimination, even for someone with no insight into the problem). It also sure doesn't sound like you have a handle on what all this affects, which to me means we should expect lots of other things to change in unexpected ways *cough* more bugs *cough*
Here's hoping you guys actually test it, and then when you don't you at least listen to us when we report the problems with it.
