Questions about dryboxing

I've never understood "dry boxing". I take all my cigars out of the humi or the cooler and i smoke them. If you think yours you to moist why are you boxing it? Why not just set it on the counter for the afternoon? What properties does this magical box have that is any different from the ambient air?

None, becuase that's all it is really. It's just a box to store the smokes while they sit. I'll keep anywhere from 10-20 cigars in there at one time. I don't want all those cigars just sitting on a counter. Small kids (niece and nephew) can be hell on things.

Probably answered earlier, but who reads anything anymore? The box is a more gradual dryout, which in my experience with cigars, is always the way to go. On the counter is fine, it works really well. I guess I like having alot of boxes.
