Please accept my apologies.

I've been working on reading all the RTFMs and the threads associated with thmae hacks. Some seem to fix problems I don't tend to have--I micromanage so the BUY applies to a problem I've never seen as best I understand.
I'm a micromanager, too. As such, BUY sorta fixes a problem you don't USUALLY have...unless you have a lot of visitors over...but even then, the point is that your micromanagement is what is preventing this. The thing is, if you're anything like me, you're a micromanager out of necessity, not because you genuinely ENJOY it. That's the point: Macro control items remove the NEED to micromanage in the first place! With them installed, you don't NEED to queue 5 or 6 things for them to do to keep them out of trouble, the shiny things will intelligently select what to do for you.
Exiled:
The usefulness of BUY is not so much in preventing a pile-up, but in the fact that it just makes it so much easier. Before I would have them shower at a separate time and would have to move my view so that I could instruct them to go to the bathroom; now I can pay attention to other things while they automatically use the bathroom and still queue up another action.
J. M. Pescado:
That's the BUY/Macro combo: Rather than having to move to see the bathroom and tell them WHICH bathroom to use and HOW to use it and in what order, you can just click on the sim and command GO TO THE BATHROOM, and they will do so as a single command that does not need micromanaging.
