We are torned on this and simply don't know which to choose. I'm making two comments below (1 REDSTONE TICK vs 2 REDSTONE TICKS), upboat the one you prefer.

1 Redstone Tick

• Faster circuits

• Allows tricking sticky pistons into dropping blocks (note that this behavior is technically a bug and not future proof anyway)

2 Redstone Ticks

• Allows torches to react to observer changes

• Allows comparators to react to observer changes

• Fewer "bugs" overall

Please add more motivations in the comment fields. On Monday you will know what the verdict was.

Thanks!

EDIT: Grum (who brought the question up) pointed out that we have this redstone torch behavior for repeaters that are set to the lowest delay, so it's not a completely new thing. This means that we are both strongly leaning towards keeping the observer at 1 redstone tick, but I still want to hear the reddit community's opinion.
