I've thought about various post-style holders, but the main thing I've come up with is that it's more difficult to thread a card on a post than it is to drop it in a box, and it can be a lot more difficult to thread an entire deck on a post than to drop a deck into a box.
Since we've been playing multiple games with multiple decks, ease of reloading is important. Additionally, getting the little hole around the post when you've got gloves on (and possibly no stable surface) could easily get annoying. Also, if you were dealing from and discarding to a box, you might be able to get away without punching hundreds of holes in each new set.
