Why on EARTH don't the prophet/lyris/abnur/etc. style pages stack? Motif pages do; and these should. Having them take up bag space like this was honestly a super dumb decision on whomever's part decided to code it this way.

    Because they are separate items for different equipment slots.

    Either it is an oversight, or it is an incentive for ESO+/banker/merchant and other monetized inventory stuff.

    Nope. Even the exact same containers don't stack.

    I guess it's an oversight, because they're containers, and containers in ESO don't satck, but let's not exclude the "ESO+ incentive" explanation.

    I guess I have never had more than one of the same at a time.

    The outfit pages are treated like runeboxes, since what they contain is only usable by one character on an account. You can learn motif pages multiple times per account (once per character). Not that it still makes complete sense.
