The mats for marks exchange rate was 50 mats for 5 marks. That means to buy a single weapon you would have to collect 750 mats. When I had to farm mats for upgrades I was happy if I could collect 50 in half an hour. That means that I would have to spend over 7 hours running around in circles just to buy a single weapon.
If it's not obvious, I've got no idea why anyone would want marks for mats back!

I just completed a Daily Public event on Mars and got 20 Spinmetal from the package so there is one more way to get mats. Mats that would just sit in inventory, doing nothing. Just deleting them seems wrong, why delete a reward? Exchanging them seems a better thing to do.
