Agree completely: keep both options. I got on tonight, and being short on Fusion Coils, liked that I could grab some for a few marks. But then I went to trade in the 350+ Spirit Blooms and 350+ Spinmetals I have only to find out I couldn't. Now what? Let them waste inventory/vault space or throw them out? I have heard they dropped the material trade-in because of the reputation gain. If that is the case, why couldn't they just drop the rep gain from trade and keep the marks and glimmer? What are we supposed with all those surplus materials we pick up? Especially since they have added materials as a bonus to patrol bounties.
