FTFY.
The chocobo saddlebag was added when they made this statement. The gesture was nice because it is often used for bait, dye, and raid tokens, so I can see why they feel like they solved the problem with it. The problem is as I stated: it didn't change the burden of inventory management, as it requires an additional input to access.
