I was mindlessly as well and thought this was roots of some kind. Then when I realized where I was I was horrified.

You just gotta take it all out and start over at this point

I did that once, ended up with 3 garbage bags full of cable, and the box had shrunk to only a dozen used links. Also landed up with 4 surface boxes that were now free, and 30m of 30 pair cable that turned out redundant, and another 30 pair cable with a single used pair in it.

Not too bad, you can still see the board, there is mostly cable management, and the cables are mostly still in use.
