Welcome back.
I like points 1 & 3, but point 2...
Since it's 'Enginering's job to repair and restore the station, and 'Mining's job to provide materials, placing the 'restore air'-materials in the QM makes little sense.
Yes, the QM can buy the materials, or redirect them from Mining surplus, but he has no role in station restoration other than his usual "I buy the stuff that people ask me to buy"-part. His only contribution would be to be the brains of directing resources, which is actually the responsibility of the engineers themselves, especially the CE. It's their job to use the Canisters to re-pressurize a room, to notice they have run out of HCAs, to pester the Miners for Molitz, to notice the miners are MIA, and then redirect their needs to the QM.
The QM usually has his hands full skimming the market and trying on novelty hats, he doesn't need the extra work of making Canisters, especially PLASMA canisters, which are made in the same machine! Those should not be part of the loot-haul for the scoundrel that breaks into the Quartermastery Office very round.
