Because a feature that would make sense is adding it to a dock where you can just pick it up, which was a requested feature.... instead you have to space-scoop it; seems like a lazy way around adding a feature.
So sorry for enjoying an added feature, even if it wasn't the one YOU wanted. My apologies. Maybe some of us don't want to leave the resource field to find a station, to transfer to another ship, just to head back to the resource zone....
