It's really telling when you compare Dressrosa, Wano and WCI to past arcs. It's like if Thriller Bark had instead focused mostly on Lola and each of her most notable individual crewmates fighting Moria's forces rather than the Straw Hats themselves, with Oars being beaten by Luffy and Lola's crew rather than the straw hats who are instead too busy fighting random zombie fodder.
I think Oda may be growing tired of the straw hats sadly. He hasn't even done any Straw Hat theaters or omakes of them in ages.
Furthermore, all these new shitload of characters that Oda keeps shoving into the story may be his way of introducing characters from all the cancelled manga projects he wanted to do but couldn't because he dedicated too much time on One Piece. The Vegapunk satellites in particular feel like they might've been characters from the giant robot manga he never got a chance to make, and Oden and his story feel like something that could've been from a completely unrelated manga if not for the Whitebeard and Roger affiliation.
Its kinda sad really, especially when Sabaody and maybe that brief trip between Zou and WCI feel like the last time the straw hats acted like an actual family unit rather than flanderized depictions of themselves like we got post-Wano as an example.

It was also just......... wasted
TBH I can't really see luffy or sanji caring about that stuff (I mean sanji hella resents his biological family (outside of reuji and sora & luffy not really needing in understanding how his fruit ACTUALLY works because I'm sure he would be able to figure it out,) but yeah, I would have ti agree with you on that, shit could have been done for both franky & ussop honestly. but tbh I like the in-universe reason why they can't do that shit no more.
Things no sane man should here. 
100% agreed. Franky and Usopp definitely deserved more time with Vegapunk too. Franky was his biggest fan and actually studied Vegapunk's old work. Meanwhile Usopp has always been shown to be a surprisingly handy inventor since Alabasta. There should've been something at Egghead for them. And after Dressrosa revealed that Franky still hasn't had his back upgraded despite having spent two years on a tech advanced island, Vegapunk finishing the job and removing Franky's last weak spot felt like a given... but it never happens.
