250 collections with minimal product distributionhigh

Store has 250 collections but many are nearly empty: '$2.99 Markdowns' has 0 products, and single-product collections like 'Cookies in the VCR' and 'Adventurefuls' fragment the 722-product catalog. This creates discovery friction and dilutes category authority.

Over-segmented collections confuse navigation, reduce average products-per-page visibility, and force shoppers through multiple shallow pages instead of browsing confident curated selections—directly suppressing add-to-cart rates.
