That is kind of the impression I'm getting. It's kind of unfortunate, because I love the circular bus as a concept, but I can also already tell that a single belt of each product isn't exactly going to be able to sustain me as I start getting into making and using any of the materials red science unlocks. At least, not without some tricks to augment the bus' throughput, like creating buffer lanes before bringing in extra stuff that rejoin after branching a line off, but at that point I might as well just feed that incoming line into a factory of its own that makes whatever I was planning to branch off.

It's kind of got me wondering about making looped buses in Factorio to try and reap the benefits there, but given the width of Factorio's buses and how much the bus model struggles to scale up past the first couple rockets, I fear that path may lead only to madness. Of course, that's the perfect reason to do it. Even better if the first loop runs out of space and I have to expand it in some kind of deranged diagonal figure-8 pattern.
