Do the Shard sites exist in EDO?

Point is, Raws are complicated.

Or just labelled inconsistently and confusingly, because what they're shown as in the inventory panel isn't necessarily what they are treated as in the conversion mechanics.

In fact I think one of the things tagged as a G5 in the inventory is actually a G2.

Have they acknowledged it being broken, or are CMDRs just assuming it's broken because it sucks?

I think CMDRs assume it sucks. However it may be still broken, but CMDRS can't check it.
General idea material is bound to PLACE now, to exact place on planet. In Horizons materials were bound to container <name> like "shards".
So...I found "cobble" with selenium once (and couple more different things around all with selenium), so even if it is broken then it is something we can't see. Devs should compare "what place should have" and "what place do have".

And one of the G4 is actually a G2 - speaking about Selenium... which makes it unavailable at Crystal Shards

But all the Raws mess have deeper roots that makes them hard to be set straight by FD.
