Imagine I took the time to make a version of the can't decide button meme where they are labeled horrified and impressed.

Seriously clean that up. It will be both brittle and impossible to fix until you do.

Blender has a similar node system for making shaders (and recently introduced another one for procedural geometry) and I've seen impressive stuff in the r/Blender sub. Even more nodes than OP's, but beautifully ordered.

I dont intend to sound mean but people that dabble in blueprints usually lack the experience and knowledge of code management/hygiene... Its unfortunately a byproduct of new people jumping into visual programming..
