This issue should be fixed before the final iteration. It has been reported several times and at this point leaving it as it is just shows a lack of attention to details or a very stressed development environment. I understand that the programming team is busy but these little things matter in a professional product, especially when they are repeatedly reported.

"The text from the Endless Emporium faction is a mix between the base GalCiv IV base version and the Supernova version. The text is from base GalCiv and shows two bonuses while the actual result is the proper Supernova version with a bonus and a malus."

The team should clean up these little details even if they feel asinine, in the end these are the details that make customers wonder what else is being passed over. The defect register should have a fourth column after Critical, Should and Could titled "Quick Wins" and minor iterations in between the majors should basically knock those off every time, waiting until the end only ensures that some will fall thru. Nothing earth shattering there, I know, but sometimes in the heat of the project it is the little things that fall thru and mar what otherwise would have been a great release.
