Why this is the cheapest path to Nuclear Bomb

We rank every known recipe for Nuclear Bomb by total crafts from the four starting elements, not just by the final combination. The two direct ingredients — Fire and Mushroom Cloud — cost 1 and 10 crafts to build from scratch, which is why the whole chain above needs only 10 crafts. The alternatives in the table below are ranked the same way: their "approx. cost" is the pricier ingredient plus one, so you can see at a glance which route actually saves you crafts — and which ones quietly waste five.
