EE is my friend. Without it, I couldn't automate my processes for factories.

Without EE, ice feeds for reactors become far more difficult, just barely possible at all.

I rely heavily on it for my ididium plate factory linked to my reactor (which uses ComputerCraft for the refill automation, uranium cell factory, and advanced alloy factory, along with condensors for the needed diamonds for iridium, and ice for the reactor).

Everything I do makes EE essential as it is. If it gets updated, changed, or removed, I could have some serious problems on my hands.

As for mining, minecraft has never been completely about that. That's why creative mode was made!

Also, EE fixes the problem of being overpowered by making collectors so expensive, and adds even more expensive items to the game.

My one issue I take is that condensers are too inexpensive. They should require 4 diamond BLOCKS, not just 4 diamonds!
