Surely this is low hanging fruit....

When looking at a facility using the Colonisation view on the system map... this:

...which is a space farm... should be this (in this instance):

The only way you can see what type of facility something is is to go into the "Rename Facility" option, which is pretty obscure, and not accessible if you aren't the system architect:

Why is there not a short explanation on the Construction page to tell you how many points a construct is worth? It's just wasting a chance to make the game more simple for the player. EG: There's a huge amount of space here where you could simply say the construction of this item will cost x Tier 1/2/3 and provide y Tier 1/2/3 points.
Instead we're left completely in the dark to rely on spreadsheets created by people that have laboured for days or weeks in confusion and frustration.
Please just indulge the user, and apply a little bit of basic game design theory. What is most simple for the user is most efficacious for the community and least problematic for the development team. If you make sure the bucket doesn't have a hole in it, you won't be forced to clear up the mess as you carry it from the latrine to the cesspit.
How many hours are spent dealing with emails from confused users because of a failure to provide simple instructions in game?
