How do solo players play Tarkov anymore?

I remember 2 wipes ago was the first time I wiped a proper 5 man squad,( no low levels, decent gear, generally good fight) I fought em behind new gas station, I had the standard level 4 loadout, trooper/ AS Val this fight took like 15-20 minutes mainly because i had to reload my 4 mags and surg kit, i came out alive sweating from the constant pressure of not dying and losing the progress because i was pretty heavy and the scavs were fucking me up when crawling to extract.

Now fast forward to this wipe where inertia has literally changed how everything would be played out, I can't see any good reason to use any high level gear/weapon that's going to cost me 350k rubles for my M4, 200k-300k for my CPC/Defender 2, 100k for my backpack, 140k for my melodonin/SJ6 and then 150k to insure all that, so all in all about over 1m rubles per raid just for BSG to fuck me over instantaneously all because I decided to use a 60 rounder in my M4 because if i used 30 rounders the fights i get into would only consist of me reloading half the time and well if you fire like 1 60 rounder in a live game you're gun is basically at the threshold to where it will it either malfunction or jam on the 2nd mag, and the fact that Inertia has just straight up made players not push whatsoever to clear out places, it doesn't matter if it's a 5 man squad going up against a 1 man they will only hold corners which basically makes dorms and resort the most cancerous places to get into a fight, and i know someone might say the altyn or rys-t could severely help me in these fights but i can't justify that when sp-5/sp-6 can literally 1 tap through those helms, I get it people want realistic features but you need to remember it's a game nothing more nothing less.

But I personally want to hear from others what this wipe was like for them because while i see BSG trying to update the game to combat hackers ruining the game they unintentionally affect the solo's who dont have full squads to play with, all the ups and the downs, even with game breaking bugs that may or may not have been patched over.
