All of which means that you should have more than enough gold to upgrade your walls.

Ignoring walls for a minute, it costs 35.95 Million more gold to upgrade the defences at TH8 than it costs in elixir to complete the lab and upgrade the barracks. That means, just to finish the defences, a TH8 will farm roughly another 33~35 Million elixir whilst doing so. That's without touching any walls. This is why TH8's end up farming (near the end of their time at TH8) with mass dragons or pekkas or anything that is elixir heavy, just to try and burn it up.

It's also why a lot of them feel that they should be able to spend it on walls. However, those fat elixir storages are food for the early TH9's who do not have the camp space, spells and troops to hit each other just yet.

And no, not every TH8 will attempt to max everything, or do their walls but even trying to get several maxed defences will end up filling the elixir storages for them. The game needs that surplus at that point to allow progression further up.

Cause it wasn't fix able then and it would break the game now. Level 8 walls are just to cheap being able to lower your elixir to under 500k everytime you log off is just too low

its not like every th8 they search will now have empty elix if this happens.a th9 still has a lot of sources to choose from. dead bases , th8s and 9s saving for a big upgrade, max ths that are waiting for a th upgrade, fwa, loot cart(to a small extent) and all the factors i have mentioned earlier

i would say the same i said to gaz. it doesnt mean every th8 will empty their elix to walls. additionaly , its not just th8s (the almost max ones) you can get elix from.

You are literally arguing against a proven fact. It happened in the past and there is no reason to assume it wouldn't happen again

Elixir issues start from TH8, as most upgrades need gold and those of Elixir are either in Lab(time consuming) or some storage/Barracks upgrade. So we begin parking up excess elixir for no reason. In TH9, we can bring Level 8 Walls to Level 9 with Elixir

well a lot of things has changed when it comes to gaining loot , so you cant absolutely rely on previous "facts" to say it wont happen again.
