If you're renting a small apartment, it's not.

Look at the post I was replying to. There was no "if you're renting a small apartment" condition, or any other conditions to limit its applicability.

Even if you're renting a big place, you still need to find a suitable place where you'll find it again.

You still need to be organized even if you have space.
