These looked good and simple only because they were manually edited to look good. But manual edition is a huge burden, as you perhaps can imagine. It has became unsustainable, and the neccessity to do so is gone now.

I understand why they are gone, but they was way too good. Too good to just drop them away without ever saying goodbye

Well, good luck.

It was not removed, it was just moved to a separate section (click on button ANAL).

Yep. It was removed from item description, not from detailed under-hood stats view. That FORCE players to check every item, Invest even more time for that to see all debug info, of things that they don't need to know about.

I found that those changes may have an opposite effect (from original design "point of view").

As I respectfully disagree with some of the latest changes (which make a little sense in terms of usability and core idea behind researches) we now have this little mod 



This mod brings back detailed description of the weapons that was previously removed from the game in 0.99J update.

What means the DPM rating on the ship info?

DPM = Damage per Minute.

Many things like these are quite subjective.
I find the "better" SFX from the first post extremely unpleasant and annoying, definitely a LOT worse than the original.

The rest is OK-ish.

First mod was made for personal use, as i don't like vanilla sounds much. Perhaps someone may find them useful

All "improvements" by mods is subjective. It's a matter of personal preference. And possibility to choose the way you like to play.
