When is it worth recycling RTs?

RTs stop collecting res as soon as you hit recycle and, as we all know (right?), recycling structures only gives back an amount of res based on their hp.

With 1-2 skulks biting, you get the same amount whether you recycle them or leave them. Which means all you do by recycling RTs is saving aliens time.

A lot of people already know this, but I'm bringing it up because I still see loads of commanders doing it, and while some will go "oh okay I didn't know that" when I call them out on it and explain, some will claim it's the right thing to do no matter what I say and/or call me an idiot or other lovely things.

Please stop recycling RTs. Your marines will love you for it.

Love,

edit: Changing the whole purpose of this thread to a discussion after having tested it again. See my post below!

So, here's roughly how much res you get for recycling / leaving skulks to bite an RT respectively:

1 skulk: recycling = 7, leaving = 4
2 skulks: 5, 3
3 skulks: 3, 1

Basically, you get 2-3 more res from recycling RTs than you get from leaving them. When do you recycle RTs and when don't you, apart from obvious situations when a marine is on their way? When can you justify having skulks occupied for a few more seconds in return for losing 2-3 res?
