If you put the station to your fleet, the fleet will be resupplied (but you have to wait a turn, with a resupply fac you could move on in the same turn), because the station has got unlimited supplies (you don't need supply storage or QRs or emergency resupplies).
A good mod would be to re-classify all the bases as "ships". Then give the hull the abilities "supply storage" and a small amount of "solar supply generation". Then your base could potentially run low on supplies during a siege, and you would have to build some sort of solarpanel-heavy power station to supply your fleets.
If you remove QRs and resupply depots, then the game would have the extra dimension of supply infrastructure.
Trinary systems would be of high strategic importance, and you would have more short-term goals to achieve.
