I may be the only one that feels this way, but I am GLAD that the new tools cannot be used at other people's farms.
I have an older computer and by the time I am hired to work at another farm and the page loads, half the crops are already harvested or plowed by other farmers and it leaves very few crops left for me to do. If the new tools were to be used at other's farms by the farmers that got there before me (as they always do), I would never get any work!
Plus, a good part of the enjoyment of this game has to do with the social activity. You can't visit and get to know other farmers if you're only worried about harvesting and plowing as much as you can while you're there. If that's what you're interested in, then the new tools will help you greatly at your own farm - alone.
I think the creators of these new tools knew exactly what they were doing when they created them. And they did it well!
