I like having big inventories for handling all my exploration needs, and only mule when I have a good-sized collection of stuff that I'd like to put in the closet for use later or by another character. Only then do I break out ATMA. Because ATMA doesn't support expanded inventories, I have to use it twice as often as I could if it did support them.
In D1 I used the ground's 128 item limit for extra storage while adventuring. In D2 I use an expanded stash and character inventory (two extra rows), since you can't keep stuff on the ground anymore, and the default stash is ridiculously small, IMO. (I'm spoiled on Bags of Holding, and other games that give me lots of inventory space.)
