I treat these classes the same way I treat all other classes -- I only pick up the ones that are appropriate for my character, since I don't personally have abilities in game mechanics that don't match my character concept. L'yhta ranges from "middlingly average" to "complete klutz" at everything related to mundane trades, so she doesn't have any synthesis or gathering classes. This is despite the fact that I actually rather like the crafting systems in ARR. I may ultimately end up creating an alt for crafting to scratch that itch, so to speak.
I'm a bit surprised to hear that you can't pick up tradecraft and fieldcraft leves without a corresponding combat class of the appropriate level. That seems a bit silly, given the DoL stealth abilities and the fact that tradecraft doesn't require you to even leave the area of the levemete if you don't want or need to. Perhaps they'll change that in a subsequent patch.
