larger junimo chest

OK I loved the Junimo Chest when it was first introduced and I put them in various places but butbutbut…

They kinda suck though a 5x5 will make them kinda suck maybe a little less? I quickly found that Obelisks and my lovey-dovey stikk of graceful and unsubtle teleportation, the Return Sceptre are simply less annoying for me. And likely faster, too. My general usecase for the JChests has always been moving stuff from the Ginger Farm to the Pelican Town farm and I found that:

Emptying my pockets to the JChest
Filling my pockets with more stuff
zzzzaaaaapppppp to PT farm
Empty pockets into chests
Fill pockets from JChest
Empty pockets again into chests

Is more annoying than:

zzzzaaaaapppppp to PT farm
Empty pockets into chests
zzzzaaaaapppppp to GI farm via Obelisk
Pick stuff up
zzzzaaaaapppppp to PT farm
Empty pockets again into chests

It's the same number of steps BUTTTTTT there are like 3 cooool zzzzaaaaapppppps and there's no empty-fill-empty-fill-empty dance which I guess sets off something in my brain, maybe it's the creaky chest sounds.

Did I mention the
zzzzaaaaapppppps???

Honestly they're limited enough seeing as you can't pick them up with anything in them, and can't place them in spots where you'd immediately want to offload items (like skull cavern), so I really don't see why they can't just be a regular chest size.

I feel it's a nicer way to help people who complain about backpack space without making an arbitrarily large backpack, too
 
I have a JC in front of all mines. If I spontaneously go into a mine I put all the stuff in that I don't need in the mine.

Then I use all the time in a mine and warp home after midnight, sometimes shortly before 2 o'clock.

That's my main usecase. Normally the current JC is enough for this.

I think that's a pretty common usecase, but it's limited if you want to do that and simultaneously have any other use for the chest, like offloading fishing loot midday.

Sure you can put it in a chest temporarily, but it's not like the junimo chest is an earlygame item, either, it should have some situations where it's genuinely useful
