What a weird anti-immersive QOL. This feels completely out of left-field compared to your usual approach of making items feel "real" / have weight?? Let me tell you as a PoE 1 vet, it does not inspire confidence.

Remember to look at WoW Retail, and where excessive QOL took them. 5 more years of dev work with this design-direction, and we have "PoE for dummies". Fine if thats what you want, to expand your audience. But I can confidently say you will loose some of the people that supported you along the way.

You used to be great at fighting against the hordes of QOL addicts, on grounds of preserving the weight of the game. I respected that, and fully agreed with your vision - people don't know these small changes ultimately affect their experience down the road. Some hours + some clicking saved now, can end up costing something far more valuable than time - your connection to; your character, your items, the world etc.

I'm probably just an old man yelling at the sky, and won't affect your decisions - but damn its frustrating to see a titan succumb to pressure from casuals.
