Leaning around in stacks and piles is the kind of reason why I avoid leather sheathed swords, for instance; just hard on them being haphazardly stored and concomitantly repeatedly moved. "display" type storage is not only good for showing; it's good for preserving and can be (traditionally is) good for access. In many traditional settings hanging something on a wall is a way to store it while keeping it handy.
