It should be noted that when the cargo is sent down due to 0/0 request via Cargo drop slots, the timer does reset.
It does not reset when the cargo is sent down due to a request in the planet's Cargo landing pad.

This might be unrelated, but looks unintuitive:
If the Cargo landing pad requests an item, the same item is in the drop slots, and its 0/0 request has been disabled, upon the drop timer finishing, only the pad's request is fulfilled, drop slots retain their items and are not sent down.

That's unintuitive.
One'd expect the timer to reset whenever the cargo load changes...

Nononono. Platforms interact with their own inventory. I'd expect it to reset whenever its inventory interacts with the planet below.

It's a savefile, so wherever your saves folder is, see wiki.factorio.com/Application_directory.
