I get what Spottra is trying to convey, but still disagree. The catchup time listed above is the amount of time the mine / collector / drill needs to be operating to make up for it's build time. The amount of time it needs to be producing never decreases, just the time relative to whatever the individuals collection schedule is. But to say that catchup time decreases from 5d 8h to 2d is very misleading, since that 2d is likely spread out over more than a week (which would be greater than 5d 8h).

It's difficult to quantify this benefit because you need to know the individuals collection schedule.
