Value of a Turret in STEAMWORKS

Is a turret worth it in STEAMWORKS? It would allow for quick and fine side to side adjustments on a shooting mechanism that would be more accurate than turning your drivetrain. You can continue to shoot even while pinned at awkward angles as well as many other benefits.

Some cons are that turrets add complexity, it would be hard to use a turret in combination with a wide drum shooter, and there is a perfectly good wall to park against in the key.

When considering shooting volume is far more important than shooting accuracy, is a turret worth it?
