Several people have proposed that the perfect crystal be placed on the Chronicle vendor for 100 Gold.
Perfect Crystals

I didn't think the perfect crystals were on the FRS. Thought the perfects were only in rare chests ATM? Could be wrong
That would make them available only to those that PVP FRS. Not everyone wants to do that.
What if someone doesn't want to engage with the chronicles system? Same argument, but reversed.
Perfect power crystals should be a chase item and require time and effort, not just mindlessly completing chronicles quests.
If you want a pve solution, gate them behind world boss tokens.
Truth, and I did get one very early on in WB. However it has been a while
since I've seen one
There is in fact a reason to add them to vendors as an extra source to prevent RNG gating something, just has to be the appropriate vendor. For example, beyond has an issue where there's 9000 buffs that are tied to legendary content and people are just W keying with 50 buff rows they got from PvE.
I think 100 gold chronicles is a more than fair pve alternative to these (for instance I have 7 gold chronicles, but near 200 FRS tokens despite already buying some things)
If there was regularly active pvp I'd say it's fine as is, but pvp has been extremely niche here for probably half a year. If the people that wanted this wanted to pvp, and I personally wish everyone pvped to some degree, they already would be.
In general I think small adjustments that improve the gaming lives of those that support the server (IE, those that donate/ run strangers through heroics even though they don't need them) and anything that promotes growth/ retention are pretty logical measures at this stage.

Currently the highest tier crystal for sell on the FRS vendor is equal to the ancient krayt pearls. PvP is not the only option for attaining that power level. The only tier higher is from the World Boss crates. Any vendor that would have those would diminish the usefulness of running world bosses regularly.
Chronicles could be easily cheesed/farmed for this and would be a terrible gameplay loop/gate for perfect saber crystals.
