Inventory Suggestion?

Why not have all items (gear, furniture, etc.) that aren't unique stack if they enter your inventory? It saves space and it be less of a hassle to keep up with. It's kind of a pain opening Eureka Lockboxes that I saved up from before the patch only to have to exit out of opening more to discard the dozens upon dozens upon dozens of hats or boots that you get.

I had over 1k boxes, barely opened 50 before my inventory was clogged with countless suspenders and such. @_@;; really wish the gear was stackable.
Not sure if I want to endure opening of the rest of the boxes.

It's not impossible but it's more complicated than stacking items like potions, because data.

You can stack potions because every potions are the same, so the game only need to store the item ID and the size of the stack.
But each equipment are different since they all have a durability, spiritbond, dye ID and glamour ID. You can't stack 10 "Anemos hat" because the game still needs to store 10 different durability, 10 different dye, etc.
Of course we don't care about durability and spiritbond for glamour gear, but they're equipments so they work like all equipments.
We can imagine a feature, kind of similar to the armoire, where you can stack equipments but lose any dye/glamour/spiritbond, but it would be a lot of work for a very special case.
Plus, I'm basing my explanation on the data we see as players. Items may have some more data tied to them on the server.

For the lockbox opening UI specifically, the simplest addition would be a "Throw away" button.

Because it would make no sense for you to be able to carry around 140,000 large dining room tables, only being able to carry 140 large dining room tables at once adds to the realism.

also there are other factors like dyes bindings melds spiritbonds

This is a fair point. An option to discard/immediately sell an item upon receiving it would be appreciated. Or a mass discard/sell option.
