Basically you're doubling the benefit at the cost of not being able to rack up boons to smash the game with before the game starts punishing you for being choosy with your picks. This to me is just a huge mistake all told, because you lose synergy with all the best keepsakes like the lambent plume and broken butterfly or pom blossom by delaying your acquisition of boons. At most, Golden Touch buys you +1 boon later on when boons matter least. Better to have 1 boon now than 2 boons later, IMO.

I agree with taking an early boon over a later boon. The problem is that the early boon with Deep Pockets means you're relying on Charon's shop, which you really have no control over. Aside from God boon, I would really only buy the weaker Pom slice. Everything else, I can easily get on the run.

The main reason I'm using Obol nowadays is mainly Well of Charon, especially for Elysium and Styx. The more Obol I have, the more buffed I get. Plus, having money to shell out for a potential Kiss of Styx is always good.

This is all endgame speak. Until getting the ending, Deep Pockets is probably the better call.
