It's day 5, I am onto sector 4 and am well on my way to gold box after unlocking Malicos.... I am not sure what the ongoing issue is... Other than I think we should have been given some "inconvenience crystals"

The ongoing issue is that CG silently moved the goalposts and if they continue to do so in the future, it is bleak. Scuba and others already explained this perfectly.

Just because you don't see it that way because it is easy for you (after they dialed the difficulty back and unlocking the new character) it does not change the underlying implications or the problems it can cause if CG will do this again , which they probably will, maybe just not that much at once, which is why people still talk about it. They want to be heard and let CG know what they think about it, if CG plans on doing so again in the future in the hopes this shows CG, that they would not like this change. This way they also can make sure that noone later can claim that the players were already aware it might be done again and they didn't say anything.

Also, you see how often people need to use words such as "might", "maybe", "possibly/possible", "if" "likely" etc? Why is that? Because at this point nobody knows if it was intentional or not because there is no communication from CG about this (was it a bug or intentional) therefor players feel left in the dark and feel a level of uncertainty how CG is planning to proceed and how it will impact the players and the game in the future. All valid reasons to try and voice their opinions and maybe get informations from CG.

Did they "silently move the goalposts" though? Other than the boss and mini boss in sector one I saw very few complaints other than the usual gripes about how the feats are hard to obtain (which is business as usual for a new conquest cycle).

It is entirely possible that they forgot to dial down the difficulty when they copied the Gammorean Guards and Rancor over from the raid and, as such, adjusted it and sent out a make good package after player complaints were heard.

Sometimes a spoon is just a spoon.
