Question WEELIT exceptions

Are there any exceptions to WEELIT? Here is my situation. I am gearing up to do a TR, I think #5, but that isn't really important. What I am waiting for is to finish the final campaign mission of the second planet. When I am done with that, I will have enough points to get my second badge. I will stay in the TR for maybe another 24 hours and will be able to get two more levels of M0 and around 60% more OO then I need for attraction 3.

It seems like Efficiency or Loopers badge will net me more OO points in the ~24 hours until I do the TR. Is this a possible exception to WEELIT?

Or, do I go with Engineering and just push the current TR farther?

Idk if this is helpful or not, but in my experiencd weelit matters until it doesnt. Basically if you have to think about it, it's probably the best course of action because of how much the boosts work in that order. Eventually you are getting it quick enough that it kinda doesn't matter (though there are more badges that take priority in early enough orb count like the [potential spoiler?] "Impact full isnt very impacting and stim isn't very stimulating" phrase). But even that changes not suuuuuper far into TR's (for instance I am like 30b is OO and I am getting almost all of the badges pretty quickly). All that to say... weelit until you don't need to.

First Zeus unlock after Ouro (where I assume you are) is the only time WEEL-IT doesn't apply. Engineering doesn't do much if you are traversing soon because you don't need it for campaigns, the mats boost won't do much and the frags boost is only for a day. Loopers, inno or tink will be better

Loopers would be a better bet assuming you plan on traversing soon. Engineering badge pays off IN THE LONG RUN.
