This is a poor example since it is absolutely false.

Now if players like me had thousands of chaos orbs readily sitting in our tabs and nothing to do with those orbs, the market will react accordingly.

Then, maybe, they should think about making chaos orbs actually useful for what they're intended for - REROLLING RARE ITEMS. BTW, shaped/elder items were a good move into that direction. And i bet, a lot of chaos orbs sunk in attempts to roll really awesome shaped/elder rares.
You see, i like most currency sinks, but i really dislike when access to endgame content is used and encouraged as currency sink too. It is not fun at all.

If you cant build and sustain a healthy mappool in Abyss league, thats yours and not the games fault.
Im not trying to mock you or anything like that. Really, thats not my intention.
You are obviously lacking basic knowledge on how to build and sustain maps. Again Im really sorry if thats upsetting you - but its the plain truth.
The mapping system and map drops are fine.
Put some effort into it and learn how to sustain. Thats is the most important piece of knowledge, if you intend to do toptier content in a temp league regularly.

So, it's my fault that i dont want make Zana dailies till my eyes bleed (to get lvl8), or that i cant run the same boring map 10, 50, 200 times in row...
Why should i like the game that forces that crappy playstyle? I always thought, that good game should encourage diverse gameplay, with many areas being worth farming as endgame content, so play wont get bored after 1-2 hours. I thought, that if game desighner spent tons of their time drawing all those areas, then player should see results of their work in endgame, and just one single area and a timy fraction of the game 95% of the time. And even then, a major part of "sustain" is to sell all other maps to other players, who buy them because they are casual enough to not be able to afford "single-map" playstyle.

If you like playing a single easy map all the time, we have nothing to discuss.

Thats not what Im doing.
Im sitting at 150/157 atlas bonus. Still missing a couple unique maps, 2-3 T12-T14 maps, 2 Guardians and Mr Shaper.

Im running pretty much all maps, except for some I really dont like, which I either sell or just trade up to get rid of them. This happened as a byproduct, because I wanted to check all new maps.
I know I could make more currency, if I was doing the sextant strategy and chain shaped vaults.
Keyword being "could".

Im sustaining T13+ comfortably and I did drop some 15+ Guardian maps so far. Thats not amazing or anything. But thats about what I got so far.
I dont need to buy maps, unless I want to run a specific map.
I dont need to buy chisel, because Im doing the recipe.
I dont need to buy sextants, because I dont use them. I fully understand what they are doing and why I shoud be using them, but I dont have to and I expect them to be nerfed/removed soonish. So I dont want to get used or even addicted to them and I hate trading for sextants.
I dont use a Biscos or any MF gear
I wasted some 500 chaos on rolling shaper/elder stuff and managed to get nothing in return

And Im still sustaining maps.
Basically Im just running maps. A lot of maps.
And thats good enough for me.

Edit:
Oh and my Zana is far far away from lvl8.
So no Breaches for me

I am sorry GGG for posting against how you handle the endgame... I am very sorry!!
