			Bit unsure why the nuclear ''power'' page even mentions uranium ammo/nukes. Should that section be removed?

	:: I was under the impression from old tutorials that you only wanted to insert cells when the steam in the tanks was getting used up. But I did some more testing and one fuel cell in one reactor can't heat all the way from 650 to 1000 C, so I can just leave the steam tanks full as a backup of sorts, or remove them completely?

			== Error in neighbour bonus section ==

			First, in the table, the values for the 2xN reactor do not take the end section that has a lower neighbour bonus into account. For example, the heat exchanger count is listed as 32 · N, but in reality it's 32 · N - 16. The same goes for the other values. Is the 2xN section for general calculation of a reactor setup with a static length value, or is it for expandable designs? If the first, I think the correction for the end sections should be added. If the latter, then I think it needs to be make clear that those numbers are for extendable designs. Maybe even add a separate row for 2xN static, and have the current 2xN be the 2xN extendable.

			Second, in the same table the turbine count is listed as 55.2 · N, but the actual count is 54.98 · N (minus 27.49 for the end sections, but that's irrelevant to this point). Each middle pair is producing 320MW worth of steam, and each trubine is consuming 5.82MW worth of steam. 320 / 5.82 = 54.9828. The 55.2 figure is when using the 5.8MW figure for the steam turbine, which is not accurate. The 54.98 figure is also accurate when calculating from steam / s produced and consumed. IMO it'd be better to just round it to 55 in the table.

			PS.: I did not want to edit in the changes without some sort of note accompanying the edit, to provide a short explanation (like commit comments for Git), but I did not see where I could do that on the edit page. Is there a way I can add comments to changes that only other editors can see?
