I really support this idea, it is actually pretty neat.
Though, with the problem of devilvery, how about bumping out QM a little bit, and using that unused RDM (whatever the fuck its called, the little plate thingy that pushes things directions) to ship the reprocessed materials back to qm, and allowing them to furfill orders of material requests. it makes the qm job more than just "buy stuff, sell stuff, get drunk, bees." and if there is no qm, no problem! the AI can set it to autonomous mode so it (tries to) evenly distribute materials to all of the departments of the station. (though it dosent automatically distribute to qm, so qms don't just set it to auto mode and just slack off all day and ruin the point of this.)
Problem (mostly) solved
