From the player perspective, loot that leaves to be sold for cash and loot that leaves the chapter are effectively the same. It doesn't circulate in the in-game economy, and devalues coin coin even further by reducing the things it can actually be usefully spent on, given that under the current system MIs are the only worthwhile major investments available.
I caution you against representing the perception of all players, as that's likely untrue.
