Affordable Templates

What, really, is the point of making smithing templates cost 7 diamonds _each_ to duplicate? Late game progression? Time sinks? Well, not anymore.

Meet Affordable Templates. A datapack intended solely to make smithing templates more about the journey to discover them, not the journeys down to the mines for more cash. As such, all smithing templates now cost only one copy surrounded by the blocks of their making to duplicate, while Netherite Upgrade Templates merely cost 8 netherrack and a diamond to craft outright. The full crafting recipe list is listed below.
