if you want to make the system even less complex, we could just use strontium to power the station services instead of using fuel blocks. Strontium is already universal, no extra prints needed, not alot of it is extracted (refinement changes already in place, and even when refined there is a low proportion of it to the other materials provided, assuming high sec Ice ore) thus it keeps the money sink aspect intact and lowers complexity the stations and when considering how energy hungry the XL station service(s) may be, the availability of the rare ice ores in low/null sec their are a few that have abundant amounts of the strontium to power them, while the high sec ones will be plenty for the weaker/unavailable services.

This could even be the "ammo" for the XL station doomsday weapon(s)
or any amount of the station functions...

(Edit apparently I misunderstood about the fuel block system as it was proposed, removed offending material)

I don't think he/she did any reading.

But, the new Fuel bloc should be able to be one BPO that can use one of the four isotopes or a combination of the four to be made.

They don't have variable inputs possible in their current code. But if you read the thread on the Citadels it's been already commented on and CCP have discussed it.
