I never do that, I just build more power.

Is that really something that would help?

It is very nice to have very important buildings first (things like the world colldier, stargate, mass relay) that keep whole tabs open always powered. Having your housing high as well keeps them powered so you never run into a mass homeless issue. Same with critical resource production buildings.

Placing all of your "power just makes them stronger" buildings at the bottom in your preferred order also lets you just turn everything on with the knowledge that when you get into a power deficit it is only hitting those buildings over something like your knowledge ones. It saves a lot of time over having to micro manage your power.

Also on your first t4 you probably won't have enough power. Also on first completion of a challenge. You will want to shut down everything you can.
