I was pretty skeptical when I first started reading through this, but I'm actually kind of looking forward to it now. People seem to be really turned off by the RNG, but with the recycler, you can essentially automate it away. I'm excited to play with recycling loop designs and separate production lines for high quality items/intermediates, and fast/efficient low quality production lines for science. I also think people are getting caught up in only thinking of the late game and waning to leap frog to tier 5 instead of thinking of the tiers as progression as you slowly build and iterate on your factory. I do agree that the naming for the tiers really doesn't match Factorio though and something more industrial would fit better.
