Ah, what a wonderful day to enjoy the socio-economic benefits of Atmos Resin in Space Station 13...
# Or is it?

To begin using Atmos Resin outside of gas magic, we have 2 choices: firefighting backpack tank, or a MODsuit with the resin module based on it.
Each means putting it in your back slot.

# The firefighting backpack
...does not have any storage. That is a problem for any job, but exponentially so for an engineer.
(it also makes you look like a ~~tool~~ janitor)

Pockets & fannypacks won't suffice. Construction bags have provided considerable relief as of recently, but there's really no way around it.

You have to carry a bag in your hands and babysit it for the rest of your life.
(due to RNG, there was a version of this picture where all the assistants are black)

# The MODsuit
Even if you care not for it's other trinkets, you use the whole thing
...and take on the full slowdown.

What seem to be inconveniences at first, will eventually turn you into easy prey for whatever looms in the dark corners of the station.

But you may ask:
# "Isn't this justified? Maybe it has some combat applications, annoying spam or completely trumps other tools of the job?"
- The foam is non-slippery
- The resin is fragile, doesn't block sight nor lasers
- Both precise and splash modes have adequate cooldowns
- The big splash has 2 charges which require refilling with water tanks
- It's twin, smart metal foam: is more durable, blocks turrets, patches floors, alligns itself with existing hull and can be used with chemistry systems

# Proposed feasible solution for firefighting backpacks:
Make a weaker, baggable version or just straight up replace them. I don't think anyone will particularly miss their current form (though the tube looks kinda cool).
# Less feasible solution for MODsuits:
Make the slowdown scale from the amount/kind of modules installed in general.
That's of course a lot more work, arguing and things to consider. Could make a lot of other people happy though. One could even imagine such a solution for certain *COUGH COUGH* mechs.

# Thank you for even giving this shit the time of day!
"goop" is official terminology btw
