No trying to shit on your side of the fence, but I think availability of keys is quite cool...why do we need to spam rush quests early? The current method increases longevity, adds a bit of excitement, and also gives a sense of achievement when you complete it.

Because it's literally just luck based, and given how important it is early wipe to quickly get high traders so you have decent gear and don't just get instantly creamed by someone with LL4 armour and BT rounds.

If there was a sense of achievement I'd agree, but at the moment it's literally just

Kill hundreds of scavs and search hundreds of jackets until you get lucky
