They most likely wanted to finally cut us some slack with Michishio.

Any reasoning behind blueprint usage never made much sense to me, it's all up to the devs and how they want to balance the game, especially this many years in vs. those early years where they handed great K2s out "for free". If Nikkousen never got theirs back then, I'd bet you they'd require BPs now, along with a quest that'd give you ONE Egusa/Tomonaga each. Ikkousen are bound to require BPs + the typical one-time quest with the current meta.
