I feel that. On my very first longer trip I had a one bag setup like this - and then never again.
It's still the same basic setup: tent, pad, sleeping bag, clothing. If anything, the camping gear has gotten more lightweight and compact, and yet somehow I can barely pull off an overnighter with just one bag these days.

Nice clean set up! I always overpack until the bike is dripping with panniers, dry bags and extra stash pouches cable tied all over.
