I know you can disable the prime tower at a trade off in quality, but why not poop out the priming instead of wasting build plate space?

Am I missing a setting in Orca?

    Purging into the chute doesn’t leave the nozzle with the same pressure as priming onto a surface because there’s no resistance. So even if you retract the same after both, you’ll get a different line start. Priming onto a surface is the best way to guarantee that the next line start is identical to one that comes after a print move and not differently due to coming from the poop chute.
