It makes sense to me that your BOB should be tailored to your circumstances. Mine lives in my car, and it's designed for several possible scenarios, so it's on the heavy side. If I'm not moving long distances on foot, having that gear could add materially to comfort and possibly survival. If I do need to hoof it, the idea is to take what the situation seems to call for and ditch or cache the rest.
'Zactly. Options for a variety of different scenarios and versatility for unanticipated circumstances. Don't lock yourself in by over-commitment to a pre-conceived plan, for "the best laid schemes o' mice an' men gang aft agley, an' lea'e us nought but grief an' pain."
