Pharmacy: Do They Really Need All That

[Cleaverwolf]

Personally speaking, I've rarely had good experiences with chem-requests and the interlink as a medical doctor, like Snowy said, Chemistry is either absent or flat out ignoring requests in favor of building bombs or whatever . I highly doubt removing Pharmacy or parts of it would change much, other than further inconveniencing doctors. It's a culture problem, not a design one.
If you wanted to nerf the pharmacy anyways, I would suggest a specialized chem-machine that is very limited in what it can make, kind of like what Earthfire suggested.
