Why is asset management such a dog's dinner?

Every day, it seems, I get updates with the work Workflow is doing - Lottie animations, ecommerce, grids, transitions - more arrived this morning. And every day, I groan.
WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO FIX THE ASSET MANAGEMENT SYSTEM?!
(Sorry, I hate caps, but a man can only take so much.)
We’ve been asking for this for 4 years. FOUR YEARS!!! And it is still crap - no folders, no multi delete, no tagging, nothing.
Only about 5% of my work is related to ecommerce, lottie animations are a ‘nice to have’, but EVERY WEBSITE has images or documents.
Why are you ignoring this? Why does this issue always gets pushed away so you can come up with some sexy little project you fancy doing? This is absolutely basic stuff.
There are some sites I just don’t do any more - fashion and photography are two that spring to mind - and I wonder how many other users feel the same.
Please sort it out, I beg you.
