I don't understand your point.
The point is that Blood is different than other gems. Blood is not a random resource it is a way to convert gold into a type of gem.*

Blood gems are not like other gems. Other gems are *resources*. Blood gems are a *choice* between gold and blood gems. That choice is made by weighing the *exchange ratio* between gold and blood. That ratio was changed in Dom3 vs. Dom2.

I do not know if this was factored into the design of Dom3. I have a feeling it was not as blood scales with *gems* and not with *gold*.

*Note: different nations have different conversion ratios. For non-blood nations that ratio between gold:blood is large for blood nations it is much lower.
