Blood magic nerfed in dom3?

[Valandil]

Reducing to essential points:

1. There is now more money.
2. Blood hunting is a way of converting MONEY into slaves
3. The exchange rates are the same
4. the cost of blood hunting has increased by a factor of two, since the provinces are twice as valuable
5. this increase in cost is exactly proportional to the increase in money.
6. Gems have not changed in frequency, and are irrespective of gold.
7. therefore, gems have been nerfed in comparison to bloodslaves.

I think at least one of you people will see the flaw here.
