I do like the thought of having a single, large market where anything and everything can be found, but this may not need to be encouraged too much as I think it may develop naturally.

Encouragement can't hurt though.

Are they really placed in certain places based on the area of the map? I worried this might be the case. I don't understand the Devs reasoning in this. Make an item that seems fairly scarce, then make players require mass quantities of it in order to trade? 

Grapes aren't required to trade. You can do town-to-town trades with caravans on the town-to-town market. And your first trader for your first trade hub doesn't require any grapes. So you can trade without having any grapes. But if you want to trade in distant lands in many hubs, you'll start to need them to create your traders. 

It will take a while of us monitoring trade once the system is fully operational in game to tell if any change to grape distribution is required. Until then, we just have to wait and see.

Something about this idea sits with me wrong but I don't know why. 
Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so you will not be dependent on anybody.

GM Luna stated that everyone gets one free trader. No upkeep, not cost. If you want additional traders you need wine and upkeep and all that. So we're saying is that IF you want to trade and you actually want to do so in a hub that mas more than 2 people in the area using it, we could do the central hub idea. You guys are turning this into something it isn't.

All we're suggesting is that everyone sends a trader unit to 0|0 so everyone can trade with each other. How is that over complicating things or trying to regulate it? 

Everyone has to make a trader?
