I am going to say no, it's not cheaty at all. People don't wish to WASTE hours and hours to bring stuff they created on one planet to the other just because the devs had an existential issue of how to FORCE people to start from 0 on new plant and did not bother adding a simple: select what planet to start. As such, they decided, let's force people not be able to bring their inventory with them. Otherwise, there is space limit like how trains have, but no MAJOR BS that makes abolutly no sense, aka weight limit. Heck there is even a mod to change the term wieght to mass, but it still dosen't make sense when you look into even more and start comparing items.
Also, is no cheaty because you can still bring said items on the space, you just need to wait and wait and wait until the rockets are ready to be send. Of course, if you are end game, then insted of hours, it's just a matter of wating due to rocket animation, because the devs decided to increase rocked productivity insted of size of items you can take because???? Ah yes, to force use to expand the factory, because otherwise, a simple research to increase how much you can bring per rocket > rocket part productivity >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> empty your inventory because we want you to play like this, oh don't like it? ha, wait for someone to create a mod then <- and this is regarding a PAID DLC.
So of course there are tons of people who don't understand how in the world did the devs design this and expect people to say "oh this is fun, I'm so happy I paid for this to not be able to carry my stuff when I travel to a different planet, even 500+ hours into my save". So of course they use mods to fix the issues. And for the same people, it's not a cheat to be able to bring your beloging that you carry with out, on this massive rocked.
"Oh but this removes the challange!" Thoes people are seeking a challange, not enjoy a game WITHOUT it being a restricted and such. So no, using thoes people's preference is not a reasonable argument exactly because they are challange seekers and will NEVER agree with non challangers who just want to play factorio without participating in a competion.
So saying that's it cheaty it's like saying you need to discard all your stuff if you wish to take the train, also ensure it has at least 1 completly empty wagon, and of course, you can't travel with just the train, it needs to have an empty wagon to carry you.
Anyways, Thank you for the improvement. I also suggest to update the mod's title and description, exactly because blueprints can be saved into the blueprint libery (aka carried anywhere) so many won't even check out your mod to realise what it actuallycan do. Aka the the ability to carry your stuff with you, even if in new space, improving the game, and, unless someone is a challange seeker or whatever their "belive" is, you actually fixed a major issue on an Paid DLC featuring space traveling
