ooh.. wait a min.... please forgive me if i am wrong here... I believe you are basing this off Fishing( just checked your lodestone). It is a tad different for MIN and BTN. As a fisher you can cast your line out in any spot and it doesn't deplete correct? As a MIN or BTN. you locate a node and swing away. You only have a specific number of swings before you must move on and find another node. There is a max of 8 attempts.. so at 114 Output you reach that max. It would suck to only get 5 swings instead of 8 and have to move on to the next spot.
