And no, buying ship creds from the Cantina shop is not a sustainable option for newer players. Doing so means ignoring the characters in that shop. Chopper, Daka, FO Officer, there are some key characters there.
It is a viable option complete with the tradeoffs you mentioned. I did it for most of the time between unlocking fleet and hitting 85 and it was one of the things that enabled me to remain in the top 10 in fleet arena that whole time.
Let's say I use Cantina refreshes to afford one purchase of 84k materials daily. That brings my average daily ship cred income from 430k to 520k, a difference of 600k per week. ie my weekly income goes from 3m to 3.6m. That's not enough to correct the problem, it only slows the rate of falling behind, while also consuming all my crystals and keeping me from getting anything else in the Cantina shop. (Maybe not a fair statement, as the crystals also go toward whatever I'm farming in Cantina battles.)
My point isn't that it is impossible, rather it is far slower than credit income and not sufficient to allow a F2P player to catch up if they continue releasing new ships. If they release two ships a month (or one capital), it becomes nearly impossible to catch up; at one ship a month it simply takes a very long time.
