They do have a reason with beyond, you can crash instances by dropping too much loot in a massive pile. I was getting about 3x as much loot as I could carry through 6 portals playing single Beyond shores, and I could crash the shore in a way that I couldnt enter the map again if I concentrated the killing too much, thats single beyond. Cha Sui crashed out his double beyond shore the other night and lost half the map because he spawned too much loot in 1 spot. It was excessive, the entire screen was items and it would go on and on for several screens, to the point where you couldnt even pick up and id all the rares if you wanted to. Item quantity in maps is an issue, its all about game stability and playability, theyre not nerfing for the sake of nerfing fun.
If your game crashes from too many items, you don't have enough RAM. I'm guessing you have like 4GB? I have 8GB and 4GB video (64 BIT). My guildmates tell me they can't enter an instance because there is too much loot (they crash) so I go in there and get it.
There is certainly a problem with item layout on the ground where you cannot always pick up items or they show as being in a room that they aren't in.

That's not an entirely accurate statement there Strange.
I have 16 gigs of RAM and my system crashed in the same way as described. There is more to it than just the amount of RAM one has.
