^ You can technically do X&Y in one run if you're lucky (Use node support for great effect). Resource heavy? Nah it sounds like you're just being lazy. I'm of the opinion that additional X&Y runs are just placebo effect. I doubt that the effects are additive. Anyway according to the other people that did Easy, clearing X&Y is not mandatory if you have the efficient stats ships since the Easy modo AD Hime only has 273 Armor.

Your problem seems to be pre-boss survival so your options are either 1) Have an effective AACI (Maya K2 has great efficacy here) or 2) Node support expedition. And if you're willing 3) Sparkling (Though sparkling will probably drain your sanity more than it helps due to troll compass)

Good luck
