npcs may have been duping the entire time

I watched a single botanist work then inspected their harvest deposits to a storage shelf, example
[12]
[20][12]
[20][20][12]
why are they depositing 20s? because 12 or 16 do not stack and so an attempt is made arranging items.

it'll happen with handlers also
[in][11][11][11][11][11][ ]
[out][12]
becomes
[in][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ]
[out][20][20][20][20][20][11]
