90% of secret chem difficulty comes from the fact that there are a shitton of "precursor" chems not listed on the wiki that the hints give barely indication that they even exist. If (most of) the precursors were made non-secret, or if there was at least a better indication that they actually existed instead of a few vague mentions of them, then figuring out secret chems would actually feel like a puzzle instead of mindless trial and error.
