Jade Shadows possibly missing a certain story prereq?

[mariberry-hearn]

I'm simply going off the info on the patch notes, since I can't be bothered to do the grind to check if this is actually the case, but...

Does Jade Shadows *only* need TNW as a prereq, despite implementing story developments from Call of the Tempestarii in the quest (primarily the Sisters of Parvos)? It's nothing more than a potential nitpick of mine, and maybe people would appreciate having less gates to easy Arcane Energize, it's just a little weird you could possibly encounter Vala, speaking as if she's of a high position in the Corpus sisterhood, before you play the quest that puts her in that position in the first place
