Have anyone noticed that you could just link spears to lever and set lever on repeat? Much easier and faster to do than any kind of repeaters or pressure plates.

You say that as if it's very hard to build a bridge, a pair of floodgates, a pressure plate and a fortification and link them to a water source.  I build an entire line of repeaters at once against a map edge (for the drainage fortification) and wall off the access doors once I've linked them to something.

You should die horribly for this. And I mean that in the nicest possible way.

If you like repeating spikes to a single lever and set it to /R then it will repeat very very quickly - and WILL repeat.  It doesn't get stuck.  If you link multiple levers up to the same spikes, THEN they tend to get state-locked.
