Economics constraints I suppose. Sometimes returning from missions, instead on to the home hub the hero appeared in the tutorial, what ?. No big deal as you conserve all progress and ammo so you quickly shoot through back to the hub. -- Disclosure: My playings aren't typical, being a 70 y.o. making my own C.E. tables.
