Anything that isn't packaged is a unique item. You can't just stack them together the way you can with package itemsd (where, by definition, every item in the stack is absolutely identical in every conceivable way, as it is little more than a pointer to a basetype). They have their own stats.

You can't just stack them together the way you can with packaged items (where, by definition, every item in the stack is absolutely identical in every conceivable way, as it is little more than a pointer to a basetype). They have their own stats. It should be feasible to have a stack if all the blueprints have identical stats. Really, it should be possible to stack anything as long as all of them have identical stats. So if you have 10 unpacked modules that all are damaged the exact same amount, it should in theory be possible to stack them just fine (vaguaries due to using floats as health that might mean that you never have two with identical values aside). That said, it's probably a lot of work (mostly in testing all the ways that this can screw up and cause items to disappear or other weird things), for not a huge benefit other than relatively minor QOL.
Except, as they're all unique objects, they all have a unique ID. If all you wanted to do was look at them as a report, great, but you can't throw away the primary key if you want to actually interact with them, so "stacking" them could probably only be done by building a completely separate container that gives them the appearance of being stacked. It's not the same thing as a stack of packaged items, at all.
There are ways you could give them the appearance of being stacked and there is approximately ****-all chance of any of that being implemented because, like you said: super minor QOL benefit.
