I feel like you're either missing or purposefully ignoring what Rufalus is actually saying here. The idea being presented is to remove crystal catalysts and use the equivalent data space to allow OTHER things to be removed from physical storage, such as primal/raid tokens that only serve as currency and probably shouldn't be physically-stored items anyway. Or letting us store more AF/relic gear in the armoire. Or grant us more glamour dresser storage and/or plates. Things that would actually FREE UP inventory space, not occupy more.
