@DaExile That's true that building Chroma himself isn't required to complete the quest, but building the parts was absolutely required to continue with the quest before SOTR. Plus, there's really no reason to do the quest if you don't want Chroma - and besides, you didn't take into account that each Chroma part uses other Warframe parts in their construction, all of which have to be built themselves. It's true that those parts could have been pre-farmed and built, but you'd never know you'd have needed them if you didn't check this Wiki.

So that's three additional parts that need to be built (including the now painfully annoying-to-get Saryn part)... 36 hours of building, plus the 36 required for the Chroma parts. That's three days, without even getting Chroma out of it yet. That's a long time for a quest to have hung around, especially when Ordis and Simaris were making you want to rip your ears off, as ALT said.
