    The diagram does have benefits. For example it shows which steps can be performed in parallel if multiple people are cooking.

    Similarly, it also easily identifies which part of the recipe each ingredient goes to. You can do this by splitting up the ingredients list as well, but that doesn't really go against it being a good idea.

    I'm a software "engineer" and also passionate about cooking. Both are arts. You can't reduce it to an algorithm
