The only issue I have with this is that I operate a mining company for hire, so while I might have all 8 lots full out on Heavy Harvesters today, when I pick them up those lots will be filled with Flora Farms instead (literally just happened this last week).

So "if" we are able to chose between redeeding or putting in datapad, I am fine with that.
If it is going to lock that lot to one type of harvester, I gotta vote no.
 
Fully agree with Chervil i switch based on the better options or resource i need a the time so one week ill do full 8 heavy mineral harvesters next i can do 8 chemical and week after 8 gas and id hate to not be able to redeed and be stuck with my initial pick.

While i like the idea of just packing the harvester up and moving it, the redeed cost is also one of the few substantial bulk costs for setting up at a new ore deposit other then the maintenance/power and is the few points of why you should be careful in deciding where to setup.
 
This is an intentional mechanic related to how the harvesting system functions and to enforce redeeding costs. There is no compelling justification to make this change as the user effort between the two is not substantial.
