Exactly what I would do if I had to reuse it, especially now since I know that adding a package would actually add 2. It all just seems so...inefficient

Even if the code isn't reused adding names to sub-expressions can be very valuable. Often times I introduce new functions or variables even if they are only used once so that I can give them a descriptive name which helps the reader more quickly understand what is happening.

Yeah, I do that with pretty much every separate operation in c# since our solutions are pretty big. Most of my JS scripts are just done in ServiceNow which are separated and named appropriately.
