Inventory Space and Data transfer limitations

[Ardox]

And yet having 100 fishing baits that need data transfer does not matter?

I'm confused and fail to see what you mean.

I agree the number of baits is absurd and we'd need a proper tackle box, but even if there was a tackle box, it wouldn't change the underlying problem: It doesn't matter much what is in the inventory slots. Their reason is that there's a lot of data to transfert. When you do world visit or you go in a instance, they need to move 175 slots of regular inventory + 443(ish) slots of armory inventory + 13 gear slots + (however many) slots for character options (race, clan, hairstyle, etc.) + anything I missed and/or forgot about.

This I agree with. Even with a full quest log, would we really utilize that much space?

Actually it's good it never totally fills up since it would make progression in a quest impossible if the bag is full. I tend to always refresh WT, the singing cluster quest, CT raid quests, hunt marks, so mine is always half-ish full. Yes i can throw stuff out, but I prefer not having to need to.
