To the very best of my knowledge, you are incorrect here; the rest of the "advanced" machines were always intended to be added; they were not basically because "someone already did it so why should we?"Your example of Advanced Machines is not fixing a deficiency, the IC2 devs decided that ONLY an induction furnace was balanced, they didn't want a macerator equivalent, that was an ACTIVE desicion. This is why addons exist, and why people say 'go use minetweaker' if you think the recipes are bad or a feature is missing. ALL mod devs do this.
