Yeah I think there are a lot of issues to making a perfect hourly comparision between expeditions. I think the current chart is fine in terms of basic comparison.

Most important one is the great success and sparkling issue. How much consumption and time does it take to sparkle and how should we take this into comparision for expeditions with different times. Also newer expedition like 21 have chance of great success without sparkling. When you take that into consideration exp 21 should have better fuel returns than exp 5. Newer players might have time to sparkle for shorter expeditions, but more experienced teitoku can often do sub runs for resources + xp.

I do feel like the current chart could be removed and we could replace it with "recommended" expeditions. Expeditions could be broken into short term (<1.5h), mid term (2-4h), long term (5h+). A lot of the inefficient expeditions that have poor returns could be removed.
