- If the archive is supposed to be a "dumb" container, then why have categories at all? Might as well dump it all in one big heap then.

The Archive is not intended to be a refuge for images that are not gallery quality. It is a location for general images to be included in threads (the Forum Gallery) and unidentifed images to be included in threads (Unidentified Gallery). As I say, it is not intended to be a second rate version of the main gallery.
In terms of your other points, the current system (laid out in my post above) does work fine. Crucially, it works in a way which doesn't put a huge burden on the mods. Any system which requires the mods to move images becomes too much of a burden as we get dozens every day at certain times of the year.
The gallery editors will decide whether any image uploaded to the main gallery is of sufficient quality so that aspects works fine too.
The only thing we may need is to provide slightly clearer instructions about how the Unidentified system works.
