Since dragons are supposed to be thought to be extinct by most mages and non-mages (excluding the guilds with a DS of course ) how would one go about dragon lacrima back then and after the time-skip?

If they called it dragon lacrima to give an indication of how much magic was charged in it, it would be more useful to power up certain weapons like etherion, or at the very least help power it. But that wouldn't explain as to why dragon lacrima would give access to artificial dragon slayer magic, nor why neither the royal family or jellal thought about using it for their own projects like the tower of heaven or that eclipse gate if it was called dragon lacrima thanks to the amount of magic stored in it.

But if they called it dragon lacrima because it was made of crystallized draconic eternano, how would one proof that it was indeed from a dragon instead of charging an amount of magic into it like they did with etherion (although that would probably be an extreme case, but hopefully you get my drift) and sell the etherion charged lacrima as dragon lacrima?
