    The thing is, at least from SE's point of view, that a glamour log is STILL 'extra space' - after all, information about what items you've unlocked needs to be saved somewhere.

    However, it is a very hollow excuse. At the MOST, the glamour log needs to consist of a series of item numbers. These do not need to be more than six characters long if we look at how many items, spells etc. exist in WoW after ten years - they're around 300,000 item numbers at this point, I think. Information about durability, spiritbond, color, who made the item; SCRAP IT. Reduce it to the barest minimum and you could most likely keep a glamour log in a 50 KB file.

    But MOONLEG, you might say. Then you have to send that 50 KB back and forth ALL THE TIME!

    Seriously. Who glamours their stuff mid-raid? Reduce glamour access to cities and housing areas, maybe a specific NPC like the Armoire and Summoning Bell.

    But MOONLEG, you say then. What about all my glamour prisms?!

    You know what? I don't care. They are a ridiculous system that just adds to clutter. They are 35 items (five grades, seven kinds) that serve no purpose other than a misguided attempt at making crafting useful for everyone.
