I just started using the pitcher pump for a rather unique purpose: skimming petroleum. When first entering the oil biome, typically there's a lot of sour gas and petroleum floating around, this time also with some pH2O on top due to a biome breach from a POI. I'm a bit of a visual perfectionist, and I greatly disliked having pH2O and petroleum mixed in with my crude oil source. This is where the bug came in.
When multiple types of liquid are available to a pitcher pumps straws underneath in the 2x5 area, it displays this in the tooltip. The issue here is when a dupe tries to take only one of the elements available, they get stuck in a loop of pumping for about 5 seconds, sometimes much longer, then give up. The petroleum tiles underneath are not depleted, the dupes receive no petroleum.
Here's a video of it in action:
Mix liquids, attempt to pump them off using pitcher pump.
