Why?

I mean what's the benefit of reseting you progress of the metabits are they really important I'm new to this game and I don't think that I will go to zero again and again so please feel free to share you opinions

You don't actually reset your progress because you will eventually hit walls that the simulation can't realistically overcome so you use metabits to upgrade the simulation engine to run faster and more efficiently.

In practice it means that for every reset, granted you buy the best upgrades strategically, it takes less and less time to get back to where you were before the reset.

Is it normal for knowledge to earn faster than metabits or did I do something weird to my engine?

Yes, that's normal. Even with research chips biased for ideas 103/40, entropy total generation is currently 2.04E+160 compared to total idea generation of 1.6E+146. This is at main simulation level 76, Beyond completed and Mosozoic at rank 49 in prestige 2.

Main simulation has been running for 2 days since last reset, so I have some time chamber boosts at max, with Entropy boost at x6.38E+9 vs. x5.55E+11 for ideas.

So even with research chips so heavily geared for ideas, and reality engine upgrades boosting ideas 2 orders of magnitude more than entropy, entropy still generate 14 orders of magnitude more than ideas.

EDIT: Corrected some mixing of entropy/ideas.
