True, but if you have maxed out on mineral storage anyway, all the minerals would be lost. Even 20% is better than nothing.
I say, If you're losing resources to storage overflow, you're not building enough
.
Keep building more ships, and once your budget is down to only slight resource overflows, send all your next newly built ships into mothballs.
Don't scrap the ships, but keep them reasonably up-to-date, and unmothball them for wartime.
It saves you time and money when you've got to replace war losses. When you unmothball, ships, you spend 25% of the normal build cost (125% in total, but 25% when you need the ship), plus you can "rush build" as many new ships as you want in one turn.
