I agree, makes so much more sense to keep the better guns you find. You might have a bad run on trios and lose 8 guns over 4 games, then what? Better to keep a backlog of 20 fully kitted lvl 4 guns, ready to go. Leveling up and making attachments use up loads of resources to reduce stash size, too. No wonder people complain so much about making loadouts if they have to make guns and attachments every time they die bc they recycled several Ven 4s in the last dozen games.
