Fluid and gas pipe throughput limit not respected in practice

Despite being described with specific throughput rates, neither fluid or gas pipes respect that and output as much as possible, all the time.
(not shown in video, but also happens with gas pipes)

Repro:

  1. Place down any fluid source leading into a pipe
  2. Place down pipes leading to a tank
  3. Watch as the tank does not get filled in increments of 5k/10k (as per pipe restriction) only
  4. Repeat experiment with gasses

Rather unscientific video (shows only the fluid part of the issue, but gasses play the same):

Slightly more scientific proof:
The only use of AbstractNetwork#networkMaxTransfer (related to fluids and gasses) is the commented-out snippet in FluidNetwork, and no use in GasNetwork.
In the same vein, neither is IAbstractCable#getMaxTransfer used anywhere except for calculating AbstractNetwork#networkMaxTransfer.
