I heard that oil barrels were a temporary solution until they add tanker wagons. So maybe oil barrels will be removed...

Yeah barrels are stupid, not only it allows handling liquids like average items (removing their uniqueness) it is also much more efficient (space wise) to store them in chests than in tanks :/

Garm, I see only advantages in repacking/unpacking/compressing etc. of liquids as items. What are your thoughts?
