[2.0.15] Burner inserters initially work without fuel

[Infidellic]

Summary

Similar to this report about burner miners when I initially place burner inserters they briefly work before "running out of fuel" despite never having been fuelled and the source items not being burnable.

What did you do?

Seen in other scenarios but quick recreation steps that so far work 100% of the time:

1) Start a vanilla world (settings do not appear to matter)
2) Tab skip the "cutscene"
3) Collect the iron plates from the ship
4) Craft a single burner inserter
5) Chop down a few trees, craft and place a chest
6) Insert remaining iron plates into chest
7) Place burner inserter, sourcing from the chest (destination can be to bare ground)

What happened?

The inserter starts to transfer iron plates out of the chest immediately on placing. If there is space in the destination it will eventually run out of fuel mid swing. It does not insert the plates to itself (i.e. it's not burning an iron plate).

What did you expect to happen instead? It might be obvious to you, but do it anyway!

On being placed the burner should be in the "out of fuel" state as none has been added and the source items (iron plates) are not burnable. This is what I saw pre-2.0, the burners were never "primed". If this is an intentional change (i.e. to ensure burners can prime themselves with burnable source items) then it's not in the changelog and the value of initial fuel energy is too high, there should only be just enough to prime itself.

Does it happen always, once, or sometimes?

It seems to happen 100% of the time, even after more advanced inserters (yellow and blue) have been researched.

Just FYI my username has been manually changed in the attached log, just in case some checksum doesn't add up. This is the only change made.

This is intentional. It's so that a burner inserter can fuel itself after placement.

It is in the changelog... of a somewhat older version.
When did you last play before 2.0 ?

Not a bug.
