It would most likely report weird things like selling a stone for 48 mulberry leaves. Besides, too much of developer time to be worth it.
This will get people to travel and make trade lively. I would say trading is one of the biggest or even the biggest thing that drives players to keep playing.
Just look at CF last world.
A change with such a big impact would certainly not be a waste of developer time.
A waste of developer time would be adding something with very small positive effects to the game overall like a new way to light fires.

Yet all the recent changes this world have been in complete opposition to encouraging world travel.

edit: I should say I completely agree with what you're saying. It just seems... too optimistic(?) given the current development direction

The problem is lack of incentive.
This idea would fix that without needing to look outside the game.
I travel around the world a lot myself because of forum/discord use.
I am conservative when judging ideas but this one is a gem. I am not being overly optimistic.
