If the draft’s comparison is accurate, leave an Expert Trek in Idle unless you need its rewards sooner: Auto uses speed-ups to finish the trek faster, not to increase its yield. The source description says an auto-versus-idle experiment was made, but it does not give the result, so this comparison is not independently confirmed here.
Choosing between Auto and Idle
The draft describes the difference as timing: Idle lets rewards accumulate, while Auto uses speed-ups to complete the current trek immediately. It says the yield is the same in both cases. If that is how the trek works for you, waiting avoids spending speed-ups for an earlier finish.
Use Auto only if getting the rewards sooner matters for a specific immediate need. Otherwise, leave the trek in Idle and keep your speed-ups.

I wish I had read this before upgrading the wrong thing.
I tried this today and it worked better than my old setup.
This saved me time in the early game.
Good guide for Whiteout Survival players. The strategy part was useful.
