There's definitely some redundancy and excess and I definitely could downsize, but a fair amount of what is in this bag follows the "nice to have it when you need it, even if that's not very often" principle. For example I don't use the bigger pliers wrenches and cobras very much except if I'm changing out a gas valve in a furnace or something like that. I honestly never use the XS versions I have either, but there's an empty pocket and I like to have something to be able to fill it. My maintenance bag video I made is a lot closer to what I would consider to be the more strict necessities of doing service, although even since I made that video I upgraded that from the TP-LC to the TP-XD because I felt that there were just a few things I would like to have when I'm just doing maintenance type stuff.
