You can put armoire in your house BTW.

I honestly forgot about that, which is interesting because the reason we can't have glamour dressers in player housing is because its "too much" for the servers to handle, but the armoire gets stuff added literally every month (via events or mog shop) and yet it seemingly hasn't been a cause for concern from Square-Enix. I assume at least part of the load problem is dye information, and the other is whatever instance data is used to generate the innards of houses.

Incidentally, they're changing how housing interior instancing works (thus being able to swap them from S/M/L sizes so readily), and dyes are being massively consolidated. Not proof of anything, but it does make me wonder...

Who knows. Heard that kind of excuse plenty of times over by now. I'm sure there's some reason or another as to why the glamour dresser and armoire became the way they are... money/time likely being the real culprits. Either way, if it is now feasible for them to fix all of the broken systems, I'm thankful its happening now as opposed to never.
