Crest acquisition rate feels about right though for me, seem to have enough as I hit the RR thresholds as you go through the gear sets, almost perfectly.

Can't have gear acquisition be too quick, MMOs are about the journey, often when you reach the destination you lose interest quickly, at least I do!
this is a bad take, you're thinking in terms of gearing and not wanting to collect every set/fashion hammer. gearing feels good, buying a piece of sov because you like the way it looks is punishing

Its not like full sov is bad and, in some cases like shield tank, is a better choice than mixing. My SM is RR87 now and basically has no use for crests anymore with all PvP sets purchased. My RR82 DPS AM is on the brink of that.

I will say there are some severe imbalances to crest acquisition with the most notable being the game is completely, 100% biased towards DPS and damage dealers when it comes to crests.

You want to get crests as a tank or a healer? Find a good DPS buddy.
You want to get crests as a DPS? Do whatever you want.

One of the biggest contributing factors as to why there are so many 2H tanks and DPS healers is the rewards are heavily skewed towards DPS or DPS-like characters.
Zero reason why they nerfed healers renown (and now crest gain) for doing exactly what a dps can do solo.

Yes but if you gear up in a month, where's the longevity? That grind that feels like it takes forever will be all the more satisfying once you've completed it.

by that logic why not add warpforged at 85 rr and to costs 30k crests?
