As in they should spend those time leveling up their fleet.. (these last 3 weekish? ).. too many new players see an event coming and start saving.. but in truth its far more important to have a well balanced and high level fleet going into an event..

TLDR: if you dont have a well trained fleet. dont hoard.. use these few weeks to catch up on whatever you need.. ASAP..

Bucket is different story.. If you don't hoard, you will have no resources to continue, i mean, you always need to use at least a fleet of CV or BB in those combined fleet map which can drain up to 500 fuel/ammo or more per sortie. Overral just do both, it better to be a half grinder/ half hoarder than a hoarder or a grinder. I guess my point is it is too early to start hoarding.. Let's say you go into event with 0 resources.. literally 0.. If you keep running expediition. and natural regen.. you can get 5k resources a day easy.. natural regen is 1.5k ish..i dont think 3.5k for 3 team expedition is that hard... So 14 days in event you get 70k resources....

even like you said.. each sortie eats 500.. thats 140 sortie.. I think thats enough to beat the event maps on medium(easy) if you have a good leveled fleet..

On the other hand I don't think every map will eat 500.. like only 2-3 maps might be combined fleet.. and E1/E2 most likely only need a light-weighted fleet..

Even you can't clear with 140 sortie.. assume you need 3 bucket per sorties.. tahts 500 bucket.. i dobut most players have 500.. so my point is you will be out of buckets.. before you run out of resources... That's why i keep saying Bucket is different story.

For TTK with a well balanced fleet.. they dont need to do much.. can save up.

For players like me. who still have massive hole in my fleet. i think i need to burn every resources i have to fill up these gaps.. Even start hoarding 3 days before the event starts.. (plus first few days.. no one should be doing maps unless you are one of the top players).. that should be enough time to hoard resources.

Just my view..
