I use some of those when I am travelling on business (at least similar) just to keep stuff organized over a week or longer at a conference, separating the clean from the dirty (if I take it out of the sub-pouch it must be dirty). But honestly when I took mine to Scotland last year I stuck two sporrans, a half dozen pairs of hose, and at least 5 or 6 bonnets in the core of the smaller version with no need to organize, since it is already split in two halves anyway. Have yet to use the roller version---that is coming this summer.
I particularly like this for carry on of kilts sincethey typically weigh so much. When I went to Scotland 3 years ago I took 4 kilts and two jacket/waistcoat combos and they basically filled a 3 suiter rolling garment bag and put the wieght near to the 50 pound limit, which was easily reached just by adding a couple sporrans and some hose. For a twelve day (11 kilted) trip I needed a second big bag for all my other clothes. This kit unweights your checked luggage a lot letting you carry on your heavy kilts, keeping them with you safe and sound.
