Optimal strategy really depends on your needs. Personally, I find it better to reduce bauxite consumption. You really don't need that much bauxite unless if you are doing LSC or ranking. The main problem with sparkling 6 has more to do with the time costs involved. So it really depends on your objectives in the game. I can usually get all the bauxite i need just from dailies and 35, 36 nightly.

For stockpiling for events, my strategy is to run expedition 6 early on. I then swap to fuel/ammo 1-2 weeks prior. This way i can keep fuel/ammo under cap which is more important to me in terms of efficiency so that I can use it to level up ships.
