Gasp, you got me! I wasn't careful to distinguish between the line discussion going on in

and older comments in this thread that weren't part of that line, and left myself vulnerable to bad faith actors catching me in a technicality!

I am slain!

And out of morbid curiousity

While SR latches get discussed in this context, of course, the discussions I've seen pretty much always have a few people say basically "there's a much easier solution: just toggle the offshore pump on and off, that's what I do".
I posted a demonstration setup where you toggle the power switch because that's what is comonly used nowadays, since what you read in other older disccusion about the offshore pump is obsolete.
Do you genuinely not realize that I was bringing this up as a supporting example of things people once did that were broken by the fluid overhaul? Or is this just more bad faith acting?

I believe this is out of topic and useless in the current discussion.

I understand there are no objections to using a power switch to control the steam power plant like in the posted setup.
Check out my latest mod ! It's noisy !
