It's such a joke. Amazon is so desperate for automation, but is too stupidly arrogant to realize the tech really isn't there yet.
I work at a amazon facility with robots and management does everything in their power to keep me away from them because I can outwork the bots without breaking a sweat.
I'd classify Garak as Military. While he isn't a soldier per se him being a Spook (Especially a Cardie Spook) means he was directly involved in tactical ops.
Marritza by contrast was doing a decidedly civilian job (file clerk) and most likely only ever participated in combat during training.
And while gas absorbs water from the air, I'm sure there is an expensive way to if not outright prevent it, than slow it down way more than current mass adopted storage.
Off the top of my head i imagine some sort of giant glass tank involving vaccums and check valves would at least extend the usable life by a fair amount.
And while there are a lot of popular motorcycles whose gas mileage is little better than a car there are also a good amount with amazing gas mileage.
There's also the possibility of converting the motorcycles to alternate fuel sources like propane or natural gas.
Or as these people are just rich assholes indulging in their fantasies they may really take their cue from movies.
All part of their "game". In order to maintain/grow power they need to put up token resistance.
If they fall into complete lock-step with trump/project 2025 their potential power in the future is limited more than risking "standing up" for themselves over relatively minor things.
