For instance, hoppers with meatpacking plants that automatically processes dead animals.
And so on.
This sounds a lot like the automated processes in minecraft.
I wouldnt add it, its not very logical, leads in the false direction of the gameplay and unnecessery in my opinion.
Hoppers are said to be for 'machinery' 'such as' the paste dispenser, aren't they?
Also, I see no reason, for instance, there couldn't be more industrial stuff.
