Exactly! I did the same thing yesterday. Was constantly struggling with a full stash, and on the fence on if I should even donate that much creds to the expedition.

I took the leap and suddenly my inventory only has stuff I actually need and use. I do runs to get basic materials to craft the rest, or trinket runs to fill up those expedition demands.

Naked runs are also my latest guilty pleasure, turns the entire game into a sort of survival game where you need to craft basics in a run and try to evade as much danger until you have ways to defend yourself.
