This article is a stub. It needs to be expanded.

In a first approximation convergent assembly every layer of a specific size needs only the height of one single cell.
See: Branching factor and Level throughput balancing

Stacking & keeping speeds constant => Downstream bottleneck at upper layers

Stacking more than one layer without also slowing down these layers relative to the bigger chambers above
leads to the the chambers above becoming a bottleneck.
Quantitatively stacking sub-layers to the thickness of super-layers leads to overproduction
by a factor of the branching factor. This is undesired.

Stacking & dropping speeds => Potentially less losses

Stacking is helpful though in case slowing down is desired in order to reduce friction and other losses.

Especially at the lowest levels of convergent assembly molecular mills might benefit from that because of
inefficiencies in piezochemistry and chemomechanical conversion possibly far exceeding friction losses.
