So I'm not entirely sure what the use case is...
When you're combining two materials and you're unsure of what the best option to craft will be, it would provide a way to check. When looking to craft less than all of an item, it would also provide a way to check and see if Make X is there, or if you have to do it some other way.

Not trying to be facetious but I've not used it yet - can't you always use a Make-All option?

I think Fletching was one place where i had to continously do Make-X as it did not have a Make-All option available. IDK if that changed in recent RS3 updates.

@Cloud if there's never a Make-X without a Make-All, there's no need to report a Make-X option, just don't include it.
Found another reason this is needed. If you have less than what it requires to make 10 of an item, when the item doesn't have a make all option, authors need to be able to determine the best quantity to select in interface.

Ex) headless arrows - best option is usually 10 sets of 15 headless arrows

have 1k feathers + 1k shafts in inv - quantity options are 1, 5, and 10
have 1k feathers + 45 shafts in inv - quantity options are 1 and 5

If the author can't check that 10 is there before it tries to select 10, it won't know to look for 5 when the 10 option isn't present.

I see your point now that I used that example to check it. I'll see what I can do about getting this implemented.
 
This has been implemented in V2.75.0
