    I remember my 6 story wooden mansion catching on fire after a lightning strike
    and losing my entire underwater village after my hard drive broke as well as my village inside a building.

    It was a very large building.
    It had working shops and everything.

    I rarely ever have above 1k in order to use the pixel compressor anyway
    due to dying, buying items and crafting.

    I have a gigantic pile of items
    that I plan on scanning too.

    Pixels are so stupidly easy to get. That penalty doesn't even matter

    Pixels are a complete non-issue once you get sufficiently advanced in the game...tier 3, I'd say. The only time after leaving Beta that pixels were an issue for me were when I was building a diamond drill...and the creature capture station, and my tier 4 armor at the same time. That's about a 10K pixel aggregate cost if I remember correctly, and the "issue" was that I had to walk over to the chest to grab three 5K voxels I'd already compressed to foot the bill.

    The refinery exists for a reason, use it. No, it's not such a BIGDEALANDIDUNWANNA to just grab excess ore as you explore the planet to refine. Yes, when the game's beta develops further and ore generation is fixed, it may be a big issue...I probably would have had to jump to another planet and beam down to go mining instead of skip the Delta sector entirely with ten minutes' preparation time.
