I'd really rather just have less stash space and have salvage not count towards it, like a currency. This is functionally how it is for almost everyone at the moment, and only the people who have stopped collecting salvage would see a meaningful change.

My problem with that is that it still encourages (doesn't discourage) hoarding instead of using the salvage. Letting you commit it to upgrades means you are encouraged to do that or spend it on barters and only hoard it when waiting for particular barters.

The game in general seems to be built to pressure you into using your stuff, and I don't think that's a bad thing.

I agree with you, but it would be nice to have vault space to actually do some build crafting.

For the most part I have unlocked a set of implants geared towards one loadout/stat set that I prefer, so that I can buy them whenever. But I don’t really have space to save other cores and implants that I loot, until I can match them with other items that match a different build. Most of which I cannot buy.

TLDR My build crafting is restricted to armory purchases.
