Sure, the differences are not that big compared to pre 2.0 days. But with this mod you can:
- Use complete books (not only the single selected blueprint of a book)
- Split the signals across multiple combinators (->requesters) which is uesful if you have very large BPs (too large for a single requester chest), current implementation isn't perfect but it's good enough most of the times. I often use the "single signal per cc" option together with an "exact single item requester chest with green lamp if complete" bp to collect all different items for large BPs.
If you want those features but do not want to use a mod: There is a web page that does the same thing but it has to "guess" which items are needed to build the entities which isn't always possible with all mods (very specific complex mods will not work).
If you don't have those specific needs, then just use vanilla Factorio. The new machnics from 2.0 are very good!
