Of Course it's unacceptable, it's badly thought out and we now know it was a design whim vs a well thought critically thought mechanic. It doesn't make sense in the world narrative and does nothing but make the game feel like work.

There's nothing critically thought out about allowing ore/ingots through portals. We get it, dude, you think Iron Gate is a flop because they don't cater and bend over backwards anytime a vocal minority whines about non-issue.

You have every tool you need to bring ore/ingots through portals but you'd rather cry about it on the forums.
