Not enough hub inputs
I would like to have more inputs to the hub, for example by providing a mini-hub or expanding the existing one. I am always in need of blueprint-shapes and would like to set up a 16-belt production for this. I already made a 16-belt white colour production, but then I noticed that this would completely block the hub.

I use balancers to give me more inputs, connecting the outer ones first as they will be the slowest.

Edit: 16 belts? Wow :D You are aware of the upgrades, right?

^^ really you have to overthink your tactics and organisation

my left side of the hub has 12 belts into the 4 using splitters. Everything is running real smooth into the hub.

Secondary hubs are planned :)

using 16 belts to deliver shape. I dont see why u would need more?

what I do, is lay balancers lke bricks, then the remaining inputs get mergers. not the most efficient method of getting stuff in the hub, but it works well enough. and unless there's a need for older factories, I just tear the unneeded ones down. color factories are usually kept though, unless I need to re-do it to be more efficient or make it produce another color. though the extra hubs will help immensely with belt clutter. no more long lines just to fit them into the central hub.

There's a guide that lays out the schematic for an inflow balancer built entirely around the maximum theoretical input rate of the Hub itself accounting for all 16 inputs. I've been using it, it works pretty great.
