From Llama:
The original reason why Enchantment Industry was excluded when the Modpack was being drafted was that it largely invalidated other modes of Enchanting, as it adds a method of "overenchanting," bypassing the Enchantment limit. No purpose to enchanting tables, Mana enchanting, using Grindstones, etc., if there was a method which is more easily automatable and allowed for stronger gear. The issue why I'd be hesitant now is server stability's sake. While it would be a fun addition, I worry that it might exacerbate performance issues. Villagers allow for a renewable method of obtaining Enchantment Books for use in the Mana Enchanter/Anvil, but Enchanting Tables serve as another method that doesn't require rerolling villagers (one RNG for another I suppose) Books are able to be duplicated via Grindstone mechanics, so eventually Villagers/Enchanting can be cut out entirely once you have all of the books. Pair that with better repair mechanics (Doesn't cost XP), and its a lot more fair to players. Of course, most people just roll with the Mana-repaired sets at this stage anyhow, so repairs a moot point. And once a full set is enchanted, there's little need for another (since Mana gear shouldn't break)
At this stage Create Enchantment Industry isn't really necessary in any capacity. Given the greatly reduced XP costs across the board, alongside easy methods of obtaining Enchantments (especially with Retraining), there's no need for mass automation of XP and Enchanting. Introducing the mod would also incentivize mob farms, which is unwise given the server's current performance issues.
However, there is popular demand for the mod, and the ability to use Mending repair automatically is somewhat useful (though in my opinion superfluous). If the recipe for Hyper Experience (needed for Hyper Enchanting, which was explained in the original message) is removed, then the introduction of Create Enchantment Industry would be fine, but not strictly beneficial. I defer judgement to y'all.
