I think the problem with the permanently available swords being part of the smithing campaign is the fact that they may cause unlucky newer players with no sense of self-control to unnecessarily deplete almost all of their resources just to try to get them and be unable to participate in any of the subsequent campaigns for the event-exclusive swords that are only available for a limited period of time. For all those people who managed to get Juzumaru in only a few attempts, there's probably just as many who may require hundreds of attempts before finally getting him after all.

Juzumaru and Monoyoshi can always be grinded for eventually at any point in time through regular gameplay, but the upcoming Kogarasumaru, Oodenta, Sengo and Koryuu are still event-only, and all four are very likely going to require one of the expensive tachi recipes to try to forge them as well. That means if you ended up burning through all your resources just trying to get Juzumaru (who by the way really is ridiculously easy to get in 7-4 as long as you're patient and don't take too many kiwame tantous) then you probably won't be able to even attempt to get any of the other rare swords coming up unless you get really lucky or something.

Honestly though, if they were going to include any of the permanently available swords in the smithing campaign, it really should've been Kikkou considering how difficult it is to get him in 7-3 normally...
