Regarding the bonus question: underclocking. You'll unlock that in the MAM eventually, and that'll let you scale diwnstream machines back to match the upstream, instead of only being able to scale the upstream up to match the downstream.
Trying to make production lines all balance to run a single end machine at 100% is a nice goal, but it falls apart pretty quickly early-game. Some products are just REALLY slow, and you might not feel comfortable early game with scaling up your upstream production THAT much.
Me personally, I don't recommend trying to build "permanent" factories until about the time you get Mk.4 belts.
