What to pickup?
Without scouring and alteration, it's pretty clear that we all have to pick up ground drops here and there. We can't all pickup exclusively currencies and useful bases, can we? As a thought experiment, imagine we all turn the filter to ultra strict POE1 style as soon as we hit maps, we all depend on crafters to supply rare gear. But crafting in POE2 is just a slot machine, not anywhere near effective as before. We all have decent currencies but no rare gear.
So, what are stuff people continue to pick up even in the end game. I am struggling to figure out a decent balance. I am picking up all rare wands and jewellery. I am even picking up white and blue if they are of good bases and craft on the spot. Somehow I don't think that is particularly efficient. What are your approaches?

End game I just pick up anything yellow. Vendor them. Then when I hit 5 mil. I do 2 full amulet pulls from Alva.
Item lvl 82: a few chosen whites for casino crafting, rings, amulets. for levels below mostly only uniques that might be worth something after vaaling
Pick up blue items. If they have plus to all skills or one good tier1 stat they can sell for divines.
