This is starting to bother me. I can't see any discernable change when the lever gets flipped. The belt at the very top stops occasionally, but the timing doesn't seem to be associated with the the lever

Can anybody clarify for me what the lever is doing? I know its all in good fun and the gif is pretty cool, but why have animate the lever flipping if it's doing nothing.

Someone please point out what I'm missing

There was supposed to be a bigger reaction to switching the lever. But it was reduced to only calming down the rumbling box that the bones fly out off. So the bones turn on the lever, box starts to rumble, and the guy turns it off.

Is there a reason that one set of bones come out for every two bodies that go in?

Pacing mostly. If it Were for every it looked too Even throughout. So no story reasoning

I was wondering where the extra bone came from out of the chute. The electrocution shows a skull, a T-bone and one straight bone but the chute has 2 straight bones. I guess the extra skull and T-bone were simply obliterated...

Maybe they’re being harvested for something sinister

It used to do something before they upgrade the factory, but it's a union shop so he keeps his job.

Also, where do the ones who get eaten come from? They aren't really timed with everything else either. How are they selected from the steady stream of beans?

They come from the left.

Cue x-files theme song.

The top belt toggles (start <-> stop) every time the lever pushes towards him.
