This is one of the dumbest general statements I see people make on this matter. I have 7 long guns and yes I'll expand at some point, but not enough to outgrow a 24 gun safe any time in, well, my lifetime. 870 is my work horse, O/U 12GA is my skeet, dove and, now that I bought more thin wall chokes that are non-tox compatible, it doubles as another duck gun, my .270 is my deer killing machine, but the 16 ga is my favorite. It's also an older gun that I had Briley do the thin wall chokes on and those chokes are non-tox compatible so it'll get some duck hunting time this year too. I did pick up a .22 to start plinking with the kids some and I'll add a cricket here soon. Left a couple more out but you get the picture. I just don't need many more guns, but I want more. I have better things to do with my money, I guess, than build my own personal armory just to admire them cause I sure as hell don't have time to shoot do all. Guess I'm more quality than quantity type of guy. And by some folks' standards the firearms mentioned aren't the highest quality in the world, but they ain't junk either. Like I tell the ole lady, may not be much, but it's mine.
Hell I barely have time to properly use the guns I have like they deserve to be used, so I definitely can't justify buying more. If money were no object then perhaps I could buy all the guns I want.
If you collect guns that's good for you, but not everyone does. So telling every Tom, Dick and Harry with any level of certainty that they NEED a bigger gun safe is just silly.

Delta in a nutshell: Breeding grounds + small wetlands + big blocks of grass cover + predator removal + nesting structures + enough money to do the job= plenty of ducks to keep everyone smiling!
