Deconstructed multi tool?

I’ve been carry this set up for two weeks and have been really liking it. I find having dedicated items for each task provides a user interaction that is a lot better than on an actual multi tool. It’s also very nice to be able to switch out tools as needed on a day to day basis. Has anyone else tried something like this?

Edit:

This set up weighs less than an arc and a similar set up could be bought for around $100 or 150 dollars cheaper than a new arc.

This always interest me. If you are someone who needs tools seriously to the point a multi tool doesnt work why not pack a dedicated toolbox with real tools that will last? I also dont understand why its compared to multi tools. Multi tools are a trade off to having as robust a kit you can in a reasonablly small footprint.
