A:

There are other reasons. There are specific names for each trinket – it might be an issue to convert something to a specifically named item rather than a generic one. Names on trinkets are their equivalent of skins on weapons.

Offesnive/defensive versions would prob cause further complications

Trinkets are purchasable through currency methods. Easy to obtain and incentivise content

It is not possible.

The probable reasons:

  • Trinkets (aside from backpacks) are relatively cheap compared with armor and weapons.
  • There is no L500 Jeweler, so no recipe to build an ascended equivalent of an insignia/inscription.

That said, there’s no fundamental reason why the mystic forge couldn’t do swap changes using some sort of exotic jewel (the exotic equivalent of insignia/inscription). My guess is that ANet didn’t see a compelling need to upend that corner of the economy until they are ready to release Jeweler r500.
