I stand corrected on the point about quality.
As for how to compare, yield is directly proportional to rate, so a patch with 3x the yield has 3x the rate, all else being equal. The comparison can be made easier with the improvements to formatting suggested earlier in this thread.

Re: K / M Abbreviation for Oil / Liquid resource patch, and change % to Unit per second
The total yield can’t simply be changed to a rate, since it depends on the pumpjack’s speed. This can change with quality and buildings added by mods.

Re: On a space age run what is the first planet you visit and why?
Vulcanus first, because it makes for a fantastic industrial center and the tools it provides, particularly turbo belts, are great for Gleba. Asteroid reprocessing is also nice for platforms.

Re: Friday Facts #442 - Flip, Flow, and Fresh Paint
Let's be honest here. Who actually uses the asteroid reroll recipe in a serious, non quality way? Every single corner of space has an abundance of all 3 rocks, and if you have too many of one type the reroll only has a 20% chance of getting the type you need. There is very little practical need ...

Re: wireless connection of logistics boxes
Okay, I see now. Then what you should do is make a feature request, since as far as I know enabling and disabling an entity based on an internal condition has never been a thing, aside from trains. It’s either a logistics condition or a circuit condition, and until you connect a wire a circuit ...

Re: wireless connection of logistics boxes
If you want bots to take a break from delivering to a chest, you need to define a high threshold where they stop delivering, like 200. Then you need to define a low threshold where they start delivering again until they hit the high threshold again, like 100.
So once the chest hits 200 items, it ...

Yes, but in the case of constant consumption, and on legendary factories and on legendary lighthouses with legendary speed modules, the drones will fly constantly. If you need to produce items on 150 slabs and don't need any more, the drones will only bring items when you need them, but if you don ...

Re: Make roboport areas scale with quality
This is not a good idea, since it can break set ups that rely on the logistics area being a specific size. It would turn higher quality roboports from being a simple drop in replacement to one where you have to adjust the build to make sure that areas that are supposed to be disconnected stay that ...

I build with the fastest belt I currently mass produce. It’s not worth my time and attention to decide which belt type to use in every situation.

Re: Inserter Filtering as a Tech Unlock
Every inserter has been capable of filtering for as long as I’ve been playing. The only change is that we now have manual control over filters for all inserters.
Even without explicitly set filters, an inserter has always been capable of taking only the correct items from a belt for the machines ...

Re: Allow us put more landing pads. With high distance from each
For me, the main thing the one pad per planet limit accomplished was to disincentivize me from dealing with bulk interplanetary logistics at all. I don't like the idea of using bots for primary logistics and I'm not a circuit expert, so that already pretty sharply limited what I would be able to do ...

Re: Rocket Silo Logistics Need Improvement
whatever is wanted, the bots deliver it in exactly the quantity desired, as long as there's no room.
This is only true for logistics to the player. For delivery to chests the bots will always pick up their maximum load, even if this will result in an oversupply. Since bots in an unmodified game ...
