Simple BP for belt routing. It is very useful with swappers, as it allows you to move multiple lanes easily, while having built-in overflow protection. See diagram.

This might not solve your problem, glitch, but it might give you some ideas.

What is overflow?

I dont understand how you can get more than 180 from a belt of 180
west imp
it's not if you produce more than the capacity of the belt, it's if one output is used at less than the belt throughput
west imp
it's mainly when a building has multiple outputs like the cutter or swapper, if one output isn't used, the other will stop while you might want to still produce that second output

Why would protection from that be useful?
Consider a Cutter/swapper that outputs A and B, which are different shapes. If B is used more than A (or has a longer distance to the next part where it is used), then A will back up. That will cause the cutter/swapper to stop making B as well.
example
after a swapper, I want to stack A and B. If the distances aren’t exactly identical (or if you delete/clear a section of belt, and that makes them uneven), then the swapper will jam.
In the case above, A will back up
