Split Harvesting and Resource Processing into Separate Skill Groups

Harvesting and Resource Processing, though related, are two distinct career paths; yet they are merged into one skill group. As a harvester who briefly explored processing, I find that the many processing skills have thoroughly cluttered the Resource Processing group within my training queue window.

I would be pleased to see the Harvesting skills broken out into their own separate skill group giving them their own list within the training queue. It would bring the Harvesting skill set some welcome clarity. -Thanks!

But..... a lot of the processing skills are needed for harvesting efficiency

About the time you cross over the 150 mil SP barrier, this will all seem like a small first world problem.

The point of this is? Mining Laser Crystals require the Ore Processing skills to be used. Splitting up Harvesting and Processing skills makes no sense and does not create any clarity for miners. In my opinion, splitting up these skills would create confusion because people would see harvesting and processing as 2 separate and disconnected activities, when, in fact, they are 2 very closely related activities. Having both activities in one group makes absolute sense.
