Given that you still have more than a week to farm up more rsc, I would say you are in a safe range to clear E-7 in EASY (most ttk spent around 20k~40k fuel and metal, slightly lesser ammo and even lesser bauxite, and about 200+ buckets).

With regards to your second question, someone has already pointed out that it is mostly the work of confirmation bias, mainly because:

1) We don't get to use super KTKM and her luck in the hard maps. The lack of a strong preemptive strike = higher chances for low armor ships to get hit

2) All our high luck DDs have paper thin armor, so when a single torpedo or takoyaki hits them, they usually get tai'ha (as opposed to BBs and CAs)

3) The inability to FCF. When your heavier ships get taiha, you can still continue sortieing with FCF. When your DDs get taiha, in most cases there won't be a spare DD to escort them back since most escort fleets only bring 2 DD and one of them is usually set as escort FS. Therefore, we tend to 'blame' our DDs for any failed sorties.

4) RNG...nuff said
