I think it must be the case that the extent to which a person finds high levels of organization useful is due to individualized brain chemistry / personality. I've put in the effort to organize things in the past and just found that it wasn't very helpful to me. No matter how good my organization was — and I'm sure there was room for improvement — it just didn't end up being worth the effort; the benefits were marginal at best. And I would usually just end up searching through what I'd saved and that seemed faster than navigating some hierarchical organized thing. I also suspect that for some people, the act of organizing itself is really the primary pay off, less so the resulting organization. For others still, the act of organizing is vaguely therapeutic, something akin to tending to one's perfect little garden.
