That fix it stick kit really is pretty cool, but won't you also need the spoke tool and chain breaker? Especially if doing some bikepacking.

I've never broken a chain yet (breaker is in the mail), but judging from how hard it looks to use the slightly bigger ones with smaller handle, I could imagine the multi-tool breaker could be quite difficult. But it's an emergency measure isn't it, as long as it's still usable for that infrequent occasion...
