I think it's worth the item slot.
the mini aetheryte is not really free, it still cost you but cost you less. With security token (I dont know if you use) you can have 1 free port (truely free), another free port is return, and you can set 3 favourite port, so what I did is use the security token free port at the city where I have my house (LL), return in grid, favour 1. mor dhona, 2 coerthas, 3 in uldah. The reasons I don't use the mini aetheryte is because it is not really a free port (it work like a favourite point) and it is a hard to place piece, back when I had my small house I have trouble to place it to a place to make it look good,and now I have the medium, I prefer not to have it at all
