I agree that I often referenced it, but at times it felt limiting rather than helpful (i.e., felt like I had to double check it would be there even if it seemed obvious to me that feudal Japan-inspired setting would have something); I wonder if making it more general types of items instead of specific items would help? Idk how realistic that is or what it'd necessarily look like, but spitballing here; that would probably also cut down on mod labor.

Like blue items would include "weapons" maybe with a list of weapon types (katana, longbow, etc.) and green would have "antiques" like masks or tea sets or whatever, but white would include "writing tools" (stationary, etc.).
