It goes from "Light Crossbow +1" to "Sharran Crossbow", both have the same stats (https://baldursgate3.wiki.fextralife.com/Sharran+Crossbow).

But, in my opinion, a History skill check could help the character remembering that the weapon was used slightly differently to be more efficient, potentially. Not advocating for that to be a thing, but I could see it.

Oh sorry I missunderstood. Yes I definitely like that too !!

But on top of not making much sense to me, it could be really frustrating if hidden properties were unlocked by the will of a dice. I usually like better in games if, in exemple a specific class can unlock special properties with a weapon. Which is basically what weapons attack are doing with proficiencies 🙂
