Storing is not excess though. At best storing has the increased risk of wasting resources through excess.

How would you compare the cost of storing resources between games? In all cases maintaining a stable storage of X resources deprives you of useful stuff costing X. Perhaps the cost can be in terms of the extra Build Power required to spend those extra resources?

Build Power is really easy to think about in ZK because it is so versatile. Comparing BP to other games becomes difficult. In Starcraft your SCVs represent a massive amount of BP but it can only be used for structures. To spend storage on units you have to make specialized structures with unit-BP and that takes time. Long construction times mean that the extra structures will start eating away at the storage quite late.

ZK has a similar structure/unit divide in BP even though constructors can assist factories. This is just because constructors are slow and so are either assisting the factory or far away.

There are games which I think have more forgiving storage than ZK. For example Company of Heroes has the same builder->structure->units system as Starcraft but storage feels very forgiving there. This is due to the massive BP of individual structures.
