That phase does end. The various vehicles allowed for exploration without returning to the surface, as do deep sea bases.
At the same time, I fully understand why you feel that way. The crunch is required for the fear to be meaningful, it’s not everybody’s cup of tea.

I don't know how far you made it but if you make the biggest vehicle you can add planters inside the vehicle which significantly cuts down the need to restock. That said the in the end game the survival elements become so trivialize they end meaningless busywork even if you have planters.

I did build the big ship, but I don’t think I used the planters effectively. I just remember needing to frequently recharge it and repair it.
