Dear Bungie,
Weapons, armor, ghosts, sparrows, and ships have a mod slot for shaders. Via this slot you're able to preview different shaders on an item. The list of shaders available to preview is equivalent to the shaders in your inventory. This is very inconvenient for a couple reasons.
There are more shaders than inventory slots, so you can't preview all the shaders you've collected.
There's no point in buying shaders from your collection just to preview it. If you don't like the way it looks, you just wasted the currency.
I'd like to propose that instead of pulling the list of shaders from the inventory, pull it from the collections instead. This will allow you to preview all the shaders that you've collected. When applying a shader from the list, you would pay the same price as you would to retrieve it from your collection. Unless you already have one in your inventory, of course.
This would be a great quality of life improvement. I'm sure players would appreciate it.
Thanks,
A dedicated guardian

I've always wanted this. It's a good idea, which is why it won't happen.
