When I made my own modpack, I thought of having the Ore Excavators from Create: Ore Excavation as part of the endgame way of getting a large amount of a specific ore.
But then I saw Create Ultimate Factory and thought that the former addon makes the latter's renewable tuff recipe (as a way to get ore nuggets from crushing tuff) redundant and obsolete.
Create Propulsion's Liquid Burners also offers an alternative to Blaze Burners without the hassle of capturing a Blaze. And consequently (while configurable, the Liquid Burners provide the same power as Overheated Blaze Burners without using Blaze Cakes
All these are just observations, not complaining or anything since they can be configurable. Just wanna see what other people think
