However the obvious counter example to that is IS, oddly.

Even without IFE you have your PRT fuel boosters very early.

Either take them along for the ride or build small groups of them and place them at strategic points - like 81 l.y. from a planet you are filling.
That way you split the journey into 3 parts
HW (or breeder) - refuel
refuel - target - refuel (no refuelling at target unless ISB)
refuel - HW
That should get you at least 6 years at Warp 9.
Even with ISB it should be useful for outward laden trips.

(p.s. the idea of putting them in space is not mine, someone else published it and I like it, so credit to them)
