Belts just look cooler than trains

Needed to expand my scrap production, and decided to see how belts work rather than trains. Turns out they are EXTREMELY satisfying to build and watch - I know trains have higher throughput but I just like the look of massed belts... 12 more stacked belts of scrap heading back to base!

I'm prepping to move to Fusion, and noticed that I've produced over 300,000 (30,000 * 10 per production) Nuclear Fuel. That's over 2.4M GJ of fuel produced!! However, I've only recycled 7,600 of the used cells. The rest are contaminating the lava flats of Vulcanus or floating through space like decaying time bombs - I haven't recycled a single one on any other planet or ship.

I knew my factory cared little about the environment, but this seems like War Crime levels of environmental destruction...

I've also learned that quality Uranium Fuel Cells seem to have no advantage? What the heck!?!
