Why are you assuming that they can travel back to a supply depo in a few weeks, and why are you assuming that they can afford to take the time to do so instead of continuing with their mission? Even if they can get to a supply depo and return before the harvest comes in, that's a delay in their mission.

You're making complaints that are loaded with assumptions that the movie doesn't require of you.
