Caldari and Gallente Visual and Textual Discrepancies

I've looked over the newly V3'd Caldari and Gallente ships - and while I love the new look - I've noticed a few discrepancies.

The color of the blinking lights on T2 ships doesn't match the color of the windows of the ships. They remain their respective Caldari blue and Gallente green. Also, the Guristas ships fall into this same category. The exception are the Ishukone ships which have retained the Caldari blue windows. I don't know if that is the intent, but I think it'd be nice if the blinking lights matched the windows on the ships.

The Caldari shuttle, Badger, and Badger Mark II are missing the Caldari logo.

The Gallente Navy ships (Comet, Exequror, Vexor, Dominix, Megathron) have the Gallente Federation logo, instead of the Federation Navy one. The former being the Gallente eagle upon a downward pointing pentagram background and the latter being the same eagle upon a square background. Would be nice to change it to the proper logo.

The Daredevil didn't receive the same treatment as the Vigilant and Vindicator. Would be nice if it had the same paintjob and logo as the two.

The Helios in its description has the manufacturer as "Creodron". However, all the other references to the manufacturer are listed as "CreoDron". Please correct this.

In contrast, the Nemesis is the only one to have in its description "Duvolle Laboratories" while all the other DL ships have "Duvolle Labs". I would've suggested changing the Nemesis's description to match the others, but since the logo itself says "Duvolle Laboratories" the others would have to follow suit.

The Raven and its brethren are the only ships that have a logo on the left side that must be read from the right side. It's kinda odd, and I'd suggest moving the left side logo elsewhere, where it could be read from the left side. Also, if the Raven and its brethren could be aligned to the axis running from the nose to the main engine, that'd be awesome.

(And now I feel like such an anal-retentive douche. And I totally mean to do this again when the Amarr and Minmatar ships get V3'd.)

I strongly support having blinking lights that match the color of the windows on these ships; it'd bring a sense of... Chromatic unity, or something.

Blue lights on the bronze Gila looks kinda odd. Always has, probably always will.
