Default Re: Divide Pts Evenly research wastes points?

Divide points evenly just seems stupid to me. Why you ever want to use it?

Lets say I am researching three projects that cost 30k each. Lets also say I am making 10k points a turn.
If I research sequentially I get advance 1 on turn 3, advance 2 on turn 6, and advance 3 on turn 9.
If I divide evenly I get all three advances on turn 9.

Why purposely delay? It seems either most important job first or shortest job first in a sequential manner is best.

Am I missing something?
