Efficiency (in time and space). You can build a simple machine that finishes the task in five slow hours or you can parallelize, stack, route, etc. it and do it

Efficiency (in time and space). You can build a simple machine that finishes the task in five slow hours or you can parallelize, stack, route, etc. it and do it in a few minutes. Kinda a programming/logistics game in that regard, IMO. Even in similar games like Dyson Sphere Program, you can play with cheats on (infinite or free resources) and but it's still a challenge to scale up production.
