Wtf is that left image? Who is just cramming shit in a closet like that? Of course it works better if you put it away properly, doesn't need some fancy term.
It's not just organizing. They got rid of a lot of stuff. The method they used to determine what stuff to get rid of has a name. Other methods could also be used.
You'll be shocked. I have seen several people who fit exactly into that kind of “just throw it in that general direction” attitude to their personal space. Most people just don't care that much, and would consider the closet on the left perfectly serviceable.
I mean, I'm not one to keep my closet looking like the right image, I don't care THAT much. But I'd at least like to be able to see what's in there, and grab things without the whole pile coming down on me, and I feel like this encompasses the overwhelming majority of people.
There's a large number of people for whom this post is useful. There's no need to target the majority.
What is wrong with cramming shit in a closet like that? Obviously one wastes some space. But it is a trade off. Cram the shit in and save time at cost of space or fold everything at cost of time wasting less space.
Like data compression. And compression level depends on use case respectively CPU vs storage / bandwidth / cost.
Btw. I am more on the left side (including my wife) and I don't see any disadvantages given enough space. Usually, I choose for clothing the first T-shirt, pants, socks, etc. I get in my hands. If colors really are not working together (5% of the time) I swap against the second clothing I grab. If two socks don't match: I couldn't care less.
And I'd say I blend into society. I just care less than other people about clothes. I wear the stuff which my dad stopped wearing because they are 20 years old and ugly. And I am writing this long comment because I think more people should think like that.
Mine is worse. I don't know it just always end like that
