One of the greatest things about numismatic or exonumic collectors is that they have a never ending variety of goals to pursue, or even no goals at all.
One of the best things about this forum is that the very large majority of us do our very best to encourage everyone to enjoy their own paths.
I must admit that I tried my hand at varieties and errors for many, many years. It was impossible to translate the hours spent to a meaningful outcome.
I was driven away from E & V when microscopic billboard size photographs became the norm, rather than the exception.
Enjoy your quest. I always enjoy your posts.
But perhaps some of the difficulty you are experiencing in getting your finds accepted has to do with a pull back by those cataloguers from ever more minute differentiation.
