About the murex in veil proxima…

… what’s the point of the red crystal anymore? It used to be needed to view the Erra cutscene, with the player needing to destroy a red crystal at the end of a murex, but now it does nothing. The crystal doesn’t drop anything, doesn’t trigger anything special, and, as far as I’m aware, doesn’t affect the strength of the sentients nor the traps inside. It doesn’t even drop an anomaly shard, you get that from killing the twenty sentients. So, what is the point of the red crystals gameplay wise after their only usage being removed from the game?

lore? Also I think it is still part of the relevant quest. It's not hurting anything.

It's a waste of an entire tileset.
