and realized I have loads of mats for that one and hardly any character requires it.
What’s the reason for it not being accepted by the scavenger to create electrium conductors? Feels like an oversight and easy fix?

This is exactly why they have it that way around. It creates scarcity in the mats you can use for the scavenger. It’s always the mats you need most for gear that are also needed for the scavenger. This is a resource management game.
