I know someone who plays this game constantly. It’s fun, but it doesn’t seem like a rationality builder. Said obsessed person doesn’t think it’s taught ver anything really useful.
Agreed. It’s not particularly rational, but it just had the qualities described.
I think it may have some small benefit in practice-of-thinking, if you get into mechanism building:
Solving problems in digital logic and 3-dimensional spatial layout.
Planning for sufficient space available for a mechanism, especially if you want it hidden in walls between rooms and no bigger than necessary.
Debugging.
But the majority of the time spent is probably no better than any other grinding.
