OK. Let me put it this way. I've been a DM for most of my life; like 30 years.....
SO much more exciting. Wouldn't you agree?
Now add food to this. How is it even remotely realistic to eat food when something is trying to eat your face off? It isn't. So food should only replenish health during resting in between adventuring. Not while you're running around all over the place or fighting something.
No, I wouldn't agree, not with most of your points. I think you, like many people on here, mistake a dnd session with a game based on dnd aimed at a mass market. I simply don't think one translates to the other without compromises, that's coming from a fan of both mediums. Restricting inventory space sounds like a terrible idea.
It certainly is possible to rp wanting to get off the mindflayer ship without searching any bodies at the minute. I don't know why you think it isn't. You're basically trying to impose your own personal favourite playstyle on others. I simply can't see the final game being anything like what you would like it to be.
I agree with food though. I rarely pick it up, or if I do I basically send most of it back to camp as it's basically a weight burden.
