Computing Module
Computing Module feels worth carrying when you care more about long-term build progress than another quick sell.
Black Box only starts to matter once you have already won the reactor fight and still have enough left to get home.
Black Box does not feel like normal loot. If one is in your hold, the hard part has already happened. At that point the real question is whether the run is still healthy enough to cash it out, either as a straight 1000-Crown sell or as contract progress worth even more.
Black Box sits under the wrecked reactor of an enemy Trampler. Once the exposed core is finished off, you pull the box from beneath the reactor and then worry about whether the run is still healthy enough to bring it home.

District Officer's Portable Safe is a large noteworthy valuable worth 1000 Crowns, so it only deserves cargo space when the route home already looks safe.
Crowns are the main spendable currency, so they matter whenever you need shop restocks, tech tree progress, or a cleaner next raid.
Crate of 1889 Chardonnay feels great when the run is already under control and there is finally room for pure luxury loot.

If the reactor fight wrecked the run, the Black Box is not the thing saving it. Surviving the way out still comes first.
You pull it from under a wrecked enemy Trampler reactor after the core is finished off.
As a sell it is worth 1000 Crowns, and the dedicated delivery contract pays even better.
