They could have fitted the whole ring / tape / mouse assembly into a small paper bag Aragorn could have kept it in his jacket and fed it little bits of lembas on the way how lovely x

Bothered me to no end. Why introduce an ex-machina tech like the transporter, when they never fkn use it to solve literally every problem.
It was originally introduced because the show's shuttlecraft prop was not quite ready for the early episodes and was too expensive to easily lug around later. That's it. That's why. And now we're stuck with it and the smug "ACTUALLY" types that remind us constantly at what the tech magic could/should do.
