the benefits of limiting item storage space

I think Minecraft has a big transportation and infrastructure problem and how this can be solved with less storage space on the player. 

for your average end game Minecraft player there is pretty much no reason to build useful structures or develop parts of their world in my opinion this is partially the elytra's fault and the shulkers fault

shulkers allowed players to hold a ridiculous amount of items at once and if you keep an e chest on you practically everything you could possibly need to transport from one place to another fits in your inventory combined with how fast elytra is there is no reason to build a blue ice highway or use a lama caravan or make a railway and there is no reason to make more storage systems because all you will ever need can just be carried from your base and stored in as little as two double chests

by increasing the carrying capacity and speed of horses, lamas, and minecarts and decreasing the capacity of the player we can give players an incentive to connect parts of their world and give extrinsic motivation to build.

how would we do this now?

we could start by not letting shulker boxes in e chests (they can be removed but not added) then maybe we add a limit to how many shulkers are allowed in the inventory and make lamas minecart chests, and horses double chested and no limitations to how many shulkers can be carried.

    k not to be rude but this is a bad idea the its one of the benefits of getting into the endgame is so things are easier and reducing shulkers would ruin so many features plus they are trying to add a better way for you to store stuff and so many anarchy servers and other servers and people rely on shulkers to be in echests i think it was good at not being able to put shulkers in shulkers but they shouldn't do this idea you proposed
