you can have a functioning train network and spaghetti. I have done that before.
Yeah, but why create an ENTIRE train network when a single new belt line does the job?
It is about expansion. All you need to do to get that copper patch is extend the network from your nearby coal patch and build a station. Whereas you might need many thousands of belts to do the same and you wouldn't be able to share the existing infrastructure of the coal patch (unless you really like sushi as well as spaghetti).
