Well, when someone can give me a good reason why phals should have their roots crammed into a small pot, I'll consider it.
Till then mine will stay in their big, shallow pots.
Most people have severe space limitations. Using smaller pots means they can enjoy more plants. I can grow Bursera trees in the ground outside, whereas most succulentists keep them in 4" / 10cm pots.
