I'd argue that a large amount of my collection is pointless.  I'd also argue that large collections of.....well, just about anything - are pointless.  I have stuff like a Stalker BNGL simply because its cool looking to me. 
I'm leaving Thorn because its boring to use in every game. I rarely use Icebreaker unless I'm weirdly out of ammo synths. I'll still take 'em out plinking - unless the new stuff turns them into ornaments. 
One thing I liked from games like Skyrim was that I'd collect a ton of stuff I loved that was meaningful to me, and even though I didn't use them I had a place to show them off. That would be nice.

	Completely agree with your sentiment. Maybe a separate storarge section to keep your favourites. Same as a real world gun collector would. They are still killing machines and have history and stories attached to them. BUT, I woulnt want to go up against an ak47 with a musket! That's all it boils down to, nobody's being forced to dismantle everything, its just that there's better coming along and people are scared of change.

	True; but its not an unfounded fear. With Dark Below, the old stuff wasn't upgradeable. With HoW, it suddenly was - my prediction at the time (fwiw) was that the ascension was a bit of a placeholder to make up for what did end up being a generally lackluster addition to the armory.
