Inaccurate ship descriptions

Recently the show info screen was modified to have a separate Traits tab rather than including it as part of the description as previously happened. At the same time links were added for skills relating to these traits.

This has led to some confusion. For example the Scimitar previously had the following (per the evelopedia):

Minmatar Cruiser Skill Bonus: 150% bonus to Tracking Link and Shield Transport range and 20% bonus to Shield Maintenance Bot transport amount per level

Logistics Skill Bonus: 10% bonus to Tracking Link efficiency and 15% reduction in Shield Transport capacitor use per level

Role Bonus: -50% CPU need for Shield Transporters

Now the traits tab refers to Remote Sensor Booster range and effectiveness and links to the Sensor Linking skill.

There are a number of possible conclusions:

1) The benefit still only applies to tracking links however you have no way of knowing that from the traits tab

2) The benefit now only applies to the remote sensor booster module (as per the traits tab text but contradicting the description of the scimitar - specifically Built with special tracking support arrays, the Scimitar was designed in large part to assist heavy combat vessels in tracking fast-moving targets.)

3) The benefit now applies to all modules using the Sensor Linking skill e.g. Remote Tracking Computers, Remote Sensor Boosters, Remote Sensor Dampers
