*** In season five, we seen an artifact being destroyed and resulting in its victim being permanently affected. Many dangerous artifacts may be preserved in case there's some horrible enduring effect that the Warehouse staff might not know about. For instance, Carroll's mirror has a woman's soul trapped inside. If they'd destroyed it, it may have killed Alice. You may argue her fate is worse than death, but this is the organization that bronzes people, so they probably wouldn't agree.

** You never know when an artifact might be needed. While many are dangerous by themselves, combining them another can cancel out or control any danger. It may also be unpredictable how an artifact reacts when destroyed, and some may be difficult to do so. As far as not securing them, the artifacts aren't meant to do anything but sit there. Only members of the warehouse are likely to ever come in contact with them. It's more like keeping them in the museum's basement than displaying in an exhibit.

** We also saw way back in Season 1 that Artie was able to create a perfect replica of the Honjo Masamune ''by himself'', presumably with some Artifact mojo. Who's to say he didn't just ''make'' the black diamonds?

*** Exactly. We see many artifacts that do something very small and simple that could never possibly be used to destroy the world. Like a snow-globe that can make real snow (Claudia once used it to chill a soda) or a magic lightbulb that lights up and levitates and apparently nothing else. These were likely collected simply to prevent TheMasquerade from being broken, not because they were dangerous.



** It was all but outright stated that his goal was not just to recover Collodi's Bracelet but also to exact revenge on the Regents and the Warehouse, who he saw as responsible for ruining his life. Considering [[YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness how he treated the people who were working for him]], there's no way he would have given up on his revenge even if they handed over the bracelet peacefully.

** Also, it was stated that Collodi's Bracelet is what ''caused'' Sykes to become evil. It let him walk again but it also created a darkness inside him that never went away. Giving him the bracelet would not have fixed the problem. At best it would have done nothing. At worst it would have turned him eviler.

* This might just be me, but I can't help but wonder why they couldn't just give Walter Sykes that bracelet he kept obsessing over. Its not like he wanted all the artefacts in the Warehouse, or could have used the bracelet to take over the world, he just wanted to be able to walk. I know they said that whoever owned it would become as bitter as Collodi himself, but it wasn't like Sykes could get much worse than he already was. Hell, letting him get up out of that wheelchair might even have given him a new lease on life and made him a better person. All his villainy revolved around getting Collodi's Bracelet, so just give it to him and boom, problem solved.
** All his villainy ''up until now'' revolved around getting the bracelet. If he'd gotten away with it, he would have found another reason to be evil.

** Except they aren't always dangerous. Mrs. Frederic specifically said that they only collect Artifacts that cause trouble, and that the person who created it gets to keep it unless it's dangerous. This would imply there's many low-power, unobtrusive and perfectly safe artifacts out there in the world that the Warehouse simply doesn't bother with. It's only the Artifacts created from particularly intense events, or from people of great importance, that are powerful enough to cause a disturbance and require the intervention of the Warehouse.

* In the first episode, Artie says ''"If a radio landed in the hands of ThomasJefferson, do you know what Jefferson would do? He would just lock it up, until he figured out it wasn't going to kill him. That's exactly what we do here. We take the unexplained... and we safely tuck it away."'', however that hypothetical scenario implies that the batteries in said radio work, etc. The line works just fine to describe the warehouse, but still conjures up a pile of FridgeLogic when looked into.

* I'm currently watching the late third season of this show, and it's already straining WillingSuspensionOfDisbelief. The reason why, is because I've realised that if artifacts were a} as easily created as the show implies, and b} always as dangerous as is implied, human society (and probably life in general) would have ceased to exist a very long time ago. There is no way that a single repository (or even a group of repositories) for these items would be anywhere near enough. This hasn't destroyed my ability to enjoy the show, but I have started to somewhat view it as a cartoon, or at least ''very'' "soft" SF.

*** A better explanation than a HandWave, would be to assume that it is very likely that they have a BagOfHolding or something else that can access Hammerspace among the artifacts. Given that there are probably multiple artifacts with that function, they probably even have recursive Hammerspace as well, which means that their storage space could be theoretically infinite, within the building we see. The hardest part would be recording where everything is.

* It makes very little sense that artifacts which are as dangerous as some we are shown, would simply be left loose on a shelf with a sign in front of them. That is terrible security, and isn't even as good as that employed by RealLife museums. I would expect most artifacts to be stored in their own vat of the purple neutralising substance, and to preferably have general-purpose wards laid over them as well, since the Regents would presumably have to know how to create them.
** Come to that, it also seems inexplicable as to why certain hazardous artifacts are not simply ''destroyed.'' Artie mentions that, "we preserve, we don't destroy," but he never really gives a convincing explanation for why that is, and in the case of many (if not most) of the artifacts that the team recover, destroying them really would be the safer and more sensible course of action.
