Found a hack for sorting board game pieces at a flea market in Portland

Tbh I was at a flea market in Portland last month and saw this guy sorting a huge pile of game pieces into ziploc bags by color, not by game. He said it saves him hours when setting up games like Carcassonne or Ticket to Ride because you just grab the bag for that color instead of hunting through a box. I tried it on my game shelf when I got home and honestly it cut my setup time in half. Has anyone else tried grouping pieces by color instead of keeping them with their game?

Doesn't that cause chaos when you want to play a specific game though?

Wait, by color not by game? That's wild but kind of genius honestly. Did he just have like a rainbow of baggies or did he sort by piece type too?

Honestly that hit me right in the feels, I feel for you.
