What's the point of cargo ships? (lemm.ee)

Am I missing something? There's no arbitrage trading opportunities as far as I can tell so what cargo are you supposed to be hauling? Piles of looted succulents and notepads?

(Serious question! I like space trading games but I don't see that as a thing and I really am curious if I'm missing something.)

Aren't there cargo hauling missions on the mission boards at various cities?

Thanks, I hadn't noticed these.

Yep! AND you need to have the cargo space to actually haul the object! I had a 3300kg probe or something. But no ship with large enough space yet! So it sits on my board, undoable.
