Shops and distress signals are a trap?

There's been a few conditions that have repeated themselves on my few wins on Normal and avoiding shops for the first few sectors was one of them. Shops seem like a total waste of time for most of the game because it can't provide you scrap unless you have something to sell. Avoiding shops for the first 2 sectors has been a winning strategy for me and avoiding shops nearly the entire game has given me a Tarus win mobdro kodi.

Obviously, if you need fuel, repairs or your ship left the hanger poorly equipped you should try to arm yourself quickly but holding off until the end of sector 2 or asap in 3 seems to be the way to go.

Likewise, if you have a all human ship distress signals don't seem to be worth the node unless you've unlocked some blue options with an upgraded medbay, upgraded sensors, a crew teleporter or stealth.
