In my mind, having a lower normal is a plus, for making the recipe items for Carpenter, Smith & Bowcraft.
Consider, a 30% Exceptional bonus.
IF you have a base 70% to make an item, and 10% chance of it being exceptional -
A 30/30 talisman will have you succeed 100% of the time, but only 40% will be exceptional.
A 0/30 talisman will have you only succeeding 70% of the time, but 40% of that 70% will be exceptional.
In the first case, 60% of your successes will be normal.
In the latter case, (3/7 * 100%) = only 42.857% of your successes would be normal. You'll more of the wood you're crafting from, but the gems aren't consumed on a failure, the way they are with tinker jewelry.
That's why I keep a high-both AND high Exceptional-Only talisman for crafting skills.

no matter how you add it up though a 20/29 tali is not worth as much as a 29/29 I still think the one you have is great just not a top end tali hence the 250k-1 mill still very good profit I think ! as for me I have a 22/29 and a 28/0 so I just switch them out as needed one day I will have the 30/30 but for now I am close enough and I got bolth mine doing the archer quests was trying to get all the recipe's and got those to so was a good day
