WHY CONSIDER IT
Keeping slag visible helps prevent a metal expansion from ignoring waste handling or a useful secondary process.
When it fits: Plan its storage, processing or disposal with the smelter route that creates it.
The tradeoff: One source recipe run makes 5 and lists 10 Sulfur, 2 Limestone at Mixer; 4 recipe variant(s) for this output are grouped together. Verify access where the pack is incomplete. The source recipe's output is not a pollution or waste-capacity simulation; downstream handling needs its own check.
