Nope. Just making a point that they should do something or just get rid of all the pointless stuff.
Nobody likes Random Encounters it seems, and it's not like I really love them. The point of them is to create risk to then create limits to spamming long rests and doing exactly what we are saying, just throwing all weighty gear in storage.
So, it doesn't have to be random encounters. It could be something else. All I'm saying is they either need to do something to make managing all that useless gear and camping supplies important or just get rid of it.
