But on the flip side, having too many items with an active component just gives you a bag filled with 5 extra items you should activate at the appropriate time, which can feel a bit overwhelming.

I get where you're coming from, I really do. But I'm not thinking up more items with passive Effects. I'm re-purposing those that already exist anyways.
