More thoughts for your BOB consideration:
BTW GPS units include an electronic compass [redundancy].
Some handheld 5 watt, waterproof, VHF, weather radios include GPS and a PLB-type functionality - very pricey!
Smoke / dust mask for urban bugout.
Make-ugly stuff for you supermodels.
Spare glasses, contacts, prescription meds.
Stimulants.
Compact monocular.
Strong letter to yourself with decision tree on whether or not to bugout or "bug-in."
The term I was trying to remember was - money belt.
