Frontier ' s reason for not allowing storage is because they fear economic repercussions from possible player manipulation of commodity prices at a station either bombing to force values down or stockpiling to sell during peak value . This is subject to debate as , in the simplest solutions , they could possibly permit only engineering commodities to be stored or impose a tiny limit , as they already impose on materials , data and modules . At any rate , this has been requested since even before the engineers came around but gained more traction because of the engineers ' requirements .
