Physical cargo is one of my favorite part of Sea of Thieves. It adds a lot to the game. I think it will do the same for SC.

They've moved us to physicalized inventories, and now they need to focus on making it convenient rather than inconvenient. The next step, IMHO, is a quick method to supply gear lockers in your hangar/ ship, and provide one click equip "quick loadout" button. Ideally, each locker could store a few sets of fps gear and have more than one loadout saved. I don't want to have to manually load up all of the gear I need in my Carrack, carrying one box at a time from a storage container to the various lockers throughout the ship. Getting ready for an outing would be a game session in and of itself.

This is one of my concerns too. I work long hours and havea busy home life, therefore my available spare time to play is limited. I don't want to spend most of my time just transferring my gear/inventory in preparation for missions. Especially when bugs/crashes/glitches could potentially negate all that prep time. I know the game will get more stable in time, but there's always that chance...

I'm happy you feel that way, but is it really worth slowing down the game even more when most people won't like it? I mean, you can still be chill in a game that values your time more- Is it really worth it to turn people away when you would be happy in both situations? I mean, you do want people here to help pay for the game, right? or else you won't have a game. You need to be willing to care a little bit about what normal people want, especially when it does nothing to hurt your own gameplay but means the world to them. I will likely endure it, but I find myself playing less and less and spending less and less because, in the end, I don't really like it when my time is wasted. Now you may hate me and people like me, but when push comes to shove, if you drive us out, then we won't have a game to play, but without our money, neither will you. I don't mean that in a spiteful way, but it's played out many times in other games, Star Citizen is special though and worth paying for, but the more they make it for just one group, the less appealing it will be to everyone else when just a few concessions would have made all the difference. Just a thought. Keep in mind how much coal needs to be shoveled into the furnace every year to keep this hype train running.

I’m excited for this. I don’t mind taking a little more to do stuff. I prefer living in the verse than just sprinting to a mission.

As for the small cargo outposts, i think they said in an SCL that those smaller outposts (without pads or only medium pads), will NOT be really viable in a good way for Carrack / C2 / Caterpillars. Because they will only "sell" small 1-2 SCU boxes, making manual loading a pain, time-wise. Its the larger outposts that will "sell" the big boxes, meaning they will be more profit / hour if you have a big ship.

Like Master Modes, I'm totally willing to give this a try and judge it for myself.

No, I don't. But it sounds like it's still ultimately the same abstracted inventory menu as before, but with extra steps involved in-between getting to the actual part where you put stuff on your character. I'm sorry, but to me that doesn't actually sound more immersive, it does just sound more tedious. I've never once in this game gone, "Man, I just LOVE spending time in this inventory system! I wish I could do it more! I would absolutely HATE it if I spent less time here and more time doing anything else!" I get plenty of immersion parked on microtech watching a sunrise over the trees. I get plenty of immersion when I'm on a bunker run, and I have to pick and choose what to carry back with me because my cyclone only carries a 1scu box and I parked my ship a couple km away. I get plenty of immersion when I'm doing salvaging, and find some quantanium in the target's cargo bay and I need to do some box juggling to make room. I don't get immersed mucking about with the menus that CIG, quite frankly, has never been all that great at designing in the first place.
