TL;DR
Modify the new tooltips so that they show inserter rotation speed in turns per second rather than in degrees per second.What ? & Why ?
The new tooltips have exposed inserter rotation speeds in degrees per second :
However, this is IMHO a silly unit to use in vanilla, as you can at best discriminate 1/8 of a turn using the grid as a guide.
(And are there even protractor mods ? And sure, you could try to remember what exact angles the various bob's adjustable inserter configurations correspond to, but they are likely to approximate to direct fractions of a turn anyway ?)
It seems to me that using turns/s would be more appropriate.
Turns/s also roughly correspond to item stacks/s moved by vanilla inserters,
but not directly writing it as items/s hints that the correspondence is not always perfect.
There's also the question of abbreviating it as t/s or τ/s or write turns/s in full :
probably not abbreviated, as t is not clear enough, and τ is sadly still not known enough...
P.S.: Am I mis-remembering, or was red inserter speed changed recently ?
I'm pretty sure it was 1 item/s for long inserters in 0.16, or was the cheat sheet wrong all along ?
I was also pretty sure that each higher level of electric inserter was less energy and materials efficient per item moved than the previous one (yellow > red > blue > stack, for low stack bonuses)
(at least not counting the two tiles of belts that red might save you),
but this doesn't seem to be true for yellow > red any more ?
