3 questions of my own:
1) Is clear demimateria used for anything?
2) Does mastercraft materia only come from the artisan gear (spectacles/tools)? And isn't that kind of skewed towards certain jobs more than others?
3) How is culinarian at desynthing? It seems to me like it would be a lot cheaper to desynth 2 and 3 star foods than it would be any other craft's recipes... can you still get fieldcraft or battlecraft III demimateria from doing so?
1) Clear Demimateria is used only for selling, it has no known recipes and the tooltip displays that it's "Exchangable for gil" only. So sell it to a npc.
2) All ilvl70 crafting gear has a chance to give it. Sadly, only the tools and the glasses right now are ilvl70 gear. And out of those tools, most are blacksmithing while the glasses are goldsmithing. So there's nothing really you can do about it :/
3) Culinarian is... interesting. You cannot desynth food
(i mean, duh, getting fresh ingredients from something you cooked/chopped/boiled?), but you can desynth all matter of Fish for Fine Sand (95% of the time), Pigments and Water Shards. With the occasional poison flash or paralysis flask from a nasty fish. Nothing truly game-changing, but it's nice to not have the useless fish you were gonna toss from fishing go to waste i suppose. Cheap water shards this way atleast.
