Lockboxes prove there is an inventory management problem with this game

I feel the other thread I made is a lost cause so I thought I try to explain matters in a different way.

This game lacks inventory space in the sense the game overbloats us with items. Every patch it is always something to make it worse. eureka is moving to its 4th week and it puts too much strain though lockboxes. Why does the game give us so many lockboxes to deal with? it is too many items. I do not even bother turning them in because of the overbloat of items compared to our tiny inventory space.

All they needed to do was make eureka stuff into a currency tab, lockboxes should be in currency in currency tab, the 2 types of crystals should be put in inventory tab.

No they pick the most inventory bloat methods possible for reasons?

Inventory bloat...? You're not suppose to keep everything in an MMO? Are you literally going to keep all of those Sharlayan Wardrobes? Those useless fireworks? Minions that you can only use one time instead of selling or giving them away to buddies? All of that Anemos glamour crap? Or the Level V Materia?

No, you're going to either get rid of useless fluff or turn all of that level V materia into crafting and gathering materia (hopefully, based on RNG) that sells for more....you're going to turn those VI's that you don't need into crafting/gathering materia to sell as well.

Seriously, you're exaggerating the lockbox situation as you did with the storage topic and if anything sucks, it's the idea that we have to do one lockbox at a time when you have like 250 to go through. But, lots of people have made macros for that.
Furthermore, why isn't your SO using those Sigma currencies for gear? That's a question you should really be asking and if they aren't using the normal Sigma gear....why are they lotting on it then...? Heck, why are they running it then?
