Why are iron and steel dismantle ratios backwards?

To create 1x steel reinforcement i need 2x steel bar.
fine.

but dismantling (smelting) 2x steel reinforcements only yields 1x steel bar

this is backwards. why?

it should be:
1x bar --> 2x reinforcements
2x reinforcement --> 1x bar

It’s to create balance. With a T2 or higher blacksmith, it goes to 1 bar for 1 reinforcement. If you did 1 bar to 2 reinforcements base with a T4, then the 2x to 1 would become a 1-1 and you’d make an infinite duping loop for steel

ah, so the thrall changes the conversion ratio.

i can accept that.

more ui notes are needed …
