What do you think about the system we have for upgrades?
What does this wait do to people and how does it benefit Ni or hinder it?
What is the reason to have it random when it could just be timed or something else?
At minimum, the wait to be able to craft anything should not be any more than half a year? (yes or no)

Just did a search to see if I could see for how long people have waited just for the Zephyr. Got a bonus Alia post.

Sigh. Statistics explain populations and not every individual. The fact that you only found 1 outlier (8 months isn't an outlier when the mean time elapsed between upgrades was 7.92 months in the last two rounds of upgrades, the median was 7 months, and the mode is 7 months) in 24 months with about 15 items available each month (i.e. 1/360 or 0.278% of the time) demonstrates this, unless you think 0.278% dictates the other 99.721%. For someone as invested in the game as you, you should have noticed this pattern, as well as the fact that three items that were not previously available for upgrade are suddenly available this month, which seems to support the idea that they were forgotten. I saw the cycles pretty immediately when planning upgrades, but we can add this instance to the "PCK noticed something Woody didn't" pile.
