This is not exactly "infocard" but I think it still applies:
Different server/game versions in Select_Server and Select_Character menus.
Not a dev issue. Poke an admin, though.

Missing names of factions. Or maybe bribing for Zoners does not have a drawback? Coronado_PlanetYuma_Bar_Bribe_Zoners
Probably non-issue. I don't think anyone has negative empathy with Zoners or else they would automatically show up in there.

Another thing is base affiliation in the base/planet infocards. Often it is burried in the text, sometimes you need to read whole history text, because the station changed the owner few times. Yet who the station belongs to, is probably the most important information. It would be good to have it mentioned in the beginning, next to other important info like this: Base_Affiliation
If it was possible to color the AFFILIATION stat based on your current reputation with the faction, that would be awesome.
It'd be a lot of work, but I guess it's plausible. Changing the color based on the player's rep, however, isn't something that's technically possible.

Stars, planets, moons, they are all too small compared to ship/station sizes. In some cases you could make a circle around them with 15-20 transports. I know, this is beyond the scope of this thread. But maybe we should adress this issue first?
The unrealistic scale of Freelancer is a crucial part of the game, and is not something that could plausibly be fixed ever. When the OP refers to "breaking the laws of physics", I mean the initial section of infocards where it lists mass, escape velocity, and such. If you get 20 transports to make a circle around the Ross Planetoid or something, though, that'd be pretty dank, and I'd be mildly amused to see screenshots, so go for it if y'want I guess.
