If that is a subtle hint to remove that capability for Compactors, it's intentionally like that, after the fact

But yeah large storage used to be hell to use when they were low on integrity, higher on coverage, susceptible to crits, blowable by Saboteurs, severable by traps and slashing weapons... basically super annoying to try and maintain an inventory xD
