I've started building my spreadsheet for this exploration, and I noticed that the multipliers applied to bees are literally %100 lower than they should be.
For example, when you first buy Wasteful Wind, you expect bees to triple in output ("200% more efficient") but it only doubles.
An even more annoying example is Flight, that is meant to be a "100%" increase in bees output but ends up being no multiplier at all. Bee output doesn't change at all buying this upgrade!
Same goes for The Hungry Beetle, applying a 20x multiplier, instead of the expected 21x.

Wait... then Self-Control halves the production of primitive flowers?

no this appears to only apply to bees
the flower upgrades so far have been applied correctly.
I'm about to test if vegetarian Wasp does the same thing
Confirmed, Vegetarian Wasp only multiplied bee output by 4 instead of 5
Note the 'm1' column where research multipliers are tallied only says '160' here...
(4x20x1x2) but if it was applied the same way every other upgrade in the game is, I would expect this to be 5x21x2x3 or 630 -- stupid discord formatting

The same bug applies to the 'johnston's organ' upgrade for primitive bees.

bumping this up because it seems important

I don't think this issue is isolated to the Pollen event - I need to start tracking numbers, but I think Extinction and Tea both have issues as well.
