Not people, but worms and biters

on_equipment_removed includes the number of equipment removed, on_equipment_inserted doesn't. Is there any particular reason for that? The same goes for the already existing events on_player_removed_equipment and on_player_placed_equipment.

on_equipment_inserted (and its sibling event) pass the actual equipment that was inserted, instead of a name and count. By contrast, the removed events return a name and count. The inserted events will always fire once for each equipment that is inserted, so the number is always 1.

I will check it again, but I did a quick test the other day and as far I could tell it only fired once, even though I shift-clicked multiple solar panels into the grid. (I just printed something in the console whenever the event fired)

Did you account for the output console spam protection that does not print messages of equal content sent within 60 ticks from the last such message?
