That's the thing! Space!
Say my POB is bone dry and I have time to fill it up (happened once). Assumed 100.000 free storage for Basic Alloy and friends (FOW not taken into consideration here, assumed they have their own lil dedicated space).
How many days can the POB live, after my supplying spree?
Option 1:
Fill it with 100.000 basic alloy.
100.000 / 4,320 consumed per day = 23.14 days
Option 2:
Filling the base with all the needed scrap, fuel and industrial materials
75.600 scrap + 15.120 MOX + 7.650 industrial materials = 98.280 space taken
That amounts to 66,150 Basic alloy / 4,320 consumed per day = 15.31 days
Now is buying all the BA the same efforts as mining 100.000 scrap? I don't know. But check out how much space the scrap takes and how much less time the base can survive on it!
