The problem is replayability. Getting a hidden potion is useful each time, getting a story extra is just useful the first time.
Another idea I sometimes use is to hide friendly npc that help you fight. That's useful every time too.
Personally, the only interest I have in replayability is to try something with a new character or look for anything I missed.
If I want to grind stuff over and over, well, there are skirmishes and other core stuff I can do.
IMO, Foundry is for cool stories and stuff the devs can't keep up with making.
Campaign: The Fenwick Cycle NWS-DKR9GB7KH
Wicks and Things: NW-DI4FMZRR4 : The Fenwick merchant family has lost a caravan! Can you help?
Beggar's Hollow: NW-DR6YG4J2L : Someone, or something, has stolen away many of the Fenwicks' children! Can you find out what happened to them?
Into the Fen Wood: NW-DL89DRG7B : Enter the heart of the forest. Can you discover the secret of the Fen Wood?
You're right there, I don't usually play a single foundry quest more than once or twice (unless someone asked me to test it).

I have one character that is only doing Foundry Quests (Oh, plus the original few levels of the game until Foundry opens up, once each Skirmish, and Special events), and will not repeat any of them.
I haven't decided if she will do Sharandar and Dread Ring until all Boons opened up, since there is no other way to get them. Most likely I won't, since she is a tertiary character.
One thing I do know, is her crafting, enchantment and runestone acquisition is severely curtailed by the lack of nodes in the Foundry missions. :-(
