Strategy
Larger Service Area as a standalone upgrade allows the Engineer to reach further, so it can target bloons earlier. However, the main value of Larger Service Area is its crosspathing benefits.
Bloon Trap gains an important utility when crosspathed with Larger Service Area, allowing traps to be repositioned to a convenient location, especially where the Engineer itself won't easily "steal" pops from the traps.
Extra range for the sentry deployment can be sometimes detrimental, as this can make sentry placement more erratic, even with the benefit of extra range of the sentries themselves.
