I like your sorting system.
I had something similar where I sorted everything by brick type.
It was massive and ultra easy to build stuff.
When it came to sorting new sets and desorting stuff build - it took forever.
That's why I switched back (5th version) to colour sorting.
A lot easier to sort the bricks.
Yes, it takes a little longer to build, but that's easily made up by the time no longer spend sorting.
Perhaps one day I'll have an entire basement for my bricks and then I can have an elaborate system.
Until then I go for the simplicity version.
