Though I agree with you, I don't really think we have to make such an issue out of this. So the empty clip remains with the weapon instead of unnecessarily cluttering an entire inventory slot while it is not being used.

For me, it's fine to have mags for weapons that have exchangable magazines and clips that are basically used as magazines for weapons that don't have exchangable magazines.

Same goes for speed- and snaploaders in my opinion.

EDIT: What's far more important to me is that there is actually a point to having speedloaders and stripper clips. At the moment, you can easily drag ammo into weapons you're not wielding and they are insta-loaded. The manual reload of Mosin, SKS and revolver is also ridiculously fast in my opinion, particularly for someone wearing working gloves........

The next thing is, that loading empty mags and clips in your inventory also happens instantaneously, something that needs to be fixed.

yes, the reloading times for stripper clips/fast loaders is identical, only difference is that you can use the speed loaders from the action menu

It is an issue as long as it isn't correct. It robs you of a decision you could make and is just plain wrong functionality.
