Why are people so itching to remove crystals from fleet? Around half your zetas come from it. So unless they add fleet currency to gac too (they won’t), you should be spending time and resources in fleet arena regardless of the crystals.
It’s mostly just people that suck at fleets that want this, to be fair.
I disagree. I think a lot of players view it as monotonous unnecessary gameplay just like the grind feats in Conquest. We now have a more mandatory and arguably improved mode to test your fleet prowess. I play fleet arena the exact same as I play squad arena = 1 per day to complete my daily quests. In GAC however, I always try to win my 3 fleet battles to take home the win.
Fleet and squad arena need to do something interesting for me to care about them.
Fleet arena offers me 350-400 crystals a day.
Odd that you are asking for the crystals to be moved to GAC, meaning you clearly want them, but you don’t want them enough to play fleet arena?
That's not odd at all. I think that is implicitly a clear motivation of my original and subsequent posts. Both squad and fleet arenas so much almost one-sidedly it is near objectively suck. That was why they killed squad arena and it will only be a matter of time before they do it to fleet.
I don’t follow what you’re saying here. “Implicitly clear”? “So much almost one-sidedly it is near objectively suck”? Did you mean to type these things?
I do follow the supposition on your part as to why they killed squad arena. I think it’s more likely that they killed it because they didn’t want people developing one team and raking in 4-500 crystals daily without continuing to push their roster.
Killing squad arena allowed the devs to develop new B/C tier teams (Iden V troopers, Dash scoundrels, SK, Inquisitors to name but a few) that top-end players simply have to chase if they want to remain competitive and maintain their crystal income. Whilst crystals remained in squad arena, many players could ignore these teams without harming their crystal income.
Fleet arena, of course, is currently a one-fleet meta. Sure, people can beat Exec with Malevolence, Finalizer and even Home One if they master the strategy and set up the fleet perfectly, but all time served players are only hitting the top of they’ve chased and unlocked the big one.

I don't play it.... I enter a battle everyday and retreat immediately
Edit - add: I think that is by far the norm than the exception
That’s more supposition. Most in my guild are still hitting fleet to earn the best rewards they can every day, and judging by average fleet arena rankings of recent TW opponents your hit/quit approach seems to be the exception.
Ya, your guild is not the norm. I am sure you would agree to that.
I could continue, but I really don't see much point. I'll happily wager $50 USD that within 6 months fleet arena will meet a similar fate as squad did.
