I can see how you might enjoy that, i just personally don't. Like i said, i feel like much of a day is wasted on waiting, and the whole planning out the next day is fine, but it still feels wasted. I like these games to relax with, and i just feel like i spend too much time waiting on something to finish. I come from games where it still takes time for items to finish, but nowhere near this long and so they have a good feel of progress happening. I feel this game could use a bit more of that. Maybe i want to spend a full day just building items to sell, but right now i don't feel i can efficiently do that. Again it's just how i personally feel.
I think the best thing this game could honestly offer, are options to let you customize the game slightly towards your play style. Let me as the player adjust the time of day, the crafting lengths, things like that slightly. Maybe in a sense a difficulty slider would be great to control that. This way players like me who just want to relax more can have a slightly adjusted game than you would get. Idk just a thought.
