The issue with BL2 isn't that there's too much crap loot, it's that your carrying space has been so reduced that you end up filling your pockets before you're even halfway through a "dungeon." It seem that the problem is not so much the amount of low end loot, but the pace at which you receive it. In the first one after the first few areas you didn't spend half your time looking for a vending machine, mostly because with cash being the only barrier between you and bigger pockets the crap loot you found ensured that you wouldn't end up filling your bags up with crap loot. The scarceness of Eridium, and the reduced bag space, put too much of a barrier between you and having enough space for everything.
