Most players doubt ZOS would let go of the main driver of the ESO+ subscription.
Many players subscribe to ESO+ for the craft bag only (regardless of the other perks).

If they ever allow the craft bag to be purchased, or any reasonable type of craft bag (ie not unlimited), many many people will drop the sub like a hot potato. No way are they going to give that up.

Is what I do, I pay the fee for a copule months a year, play the varius chapter and than stop paying for the rest 10 months but this mean that you can't play randomly when you want to. If you have bought ALL THE CONTENTS you should have it for less. regarding what you said :" surely there's something you could cut out of your life so you could sub? " I only can advise you to rethink your priorities.

Zos brings in more revenue from a 12-month subscription than from selling all 4 DLCs in a year at full price. Take into account that a player buying the DLCs outright is buying their crowns on sale so they are only paying around 60% of that full price.
This is why Zos incentivizes the subscription with the crafting bag. It is why they have specifically stated they will never sell it outright. This is one thing I doubt Zos will change their mind on as it is revenue.
Edit: I was about to buy all the DLCs released and drop my sub when Zos announced this bag. Threads like this remind Zos of how brilliant their decision was to make the crafting bag an ESO exclusive.

ah, I forgot, I didn't say for free, I said for less like 7$ a month or something like that and only for those who have all the contents
I found no mention of $7 or seven in this thread.
What you are suggesting is a constantly changing requirement that would need to be updated every three months.
I would suggest not buying DLCs anymore and just subscribe so you have access to the crafting bag. In the end, it will be the most successful method of getting the crafting bag.
Either way, the choice is yours. Enjoy the game.
