now imagine you want to get 10 build sets for different things and you dont want to bpcs to get mixed.... now you have to fly an industrial to cary the 1000m3 the small containers take up. also you cant load small containers on a freighter.. so you would have to use 10000m3 cans for blueprints..... or you can just mix them in and spend the next hour spliting the stacks when you get then to your destinatin.
and TBH... I play to have fun and not bo be sorting documents... I get enough of that at work. and as many still not understand, this is a game not a second unpayed job :D I don't understand the problem. How is it possible for a can to be too big, unless you're trying to haul huge numbers of blueprints in an interceptor? And...I don't own a freighter, why can't you use small cans in one? (Personally, I move mine in a DST or a blockade runner. 1000m3 is not a big ask for anyone with halfway decent industrial skills.) i'm just as confused as you. having had to handle large numbers of alliance level bops and bpc through several large moves i have never had an issue
Also confused. I do lots of invention so I have cans for BPOs and BPCs. No problem. Need to find a particular BPC, use the search function or open the industry window and point it to the relevant can. Since invention requires lots of other StuffGäó I often move everything at once in a JF....if I need to move. But I could easily move all those BPOs/BPCs in a viator or crane.
And to be clear, I dump all the BPOs in one can, all the BPCs in one can. If you want a can for each BPO item...okay, but that seems just a tad compulsive to me.

The downside is the opportunity cost--i.e. time spent developing this idea and putting it in game vs. doing something else with that dev time.
Is this needed? I have never had an issue finding BPCs or BPOs for installing jobs with the search function and the industry window. Granted, I'm just one guy...but we have 2 also wondering why this is needed.

if you need to put each build set to someone else its not a valid option to dump all of the bpcs in one can is it... sure I have a can with 1000 bpos as well but those are not the ones I need to redistribute
What does "put each build set to someone else" mean? Did you mean assign?
