I agree with Dread on all counts here.
Sadly, the MUL's scope and focus should have been separated by users. One for developers, the other for everyone else. Each should have been geared to answer specific questions and provide specific information. While information like intro dates, factories (by era), common & rare users, are useful, pains should have been taken to address audience in relation to search output.
For example, want to cut down on fan rage? Provide common & rare users by era. So those few dozen salvaged Daimyos might still show up in a MUL-generated report for some Davion Fanboy ala 3057, but they'll sitting in a rare column, and perhaps completely gone by 3090 and so on. Not sit in the same "common" column hosting an Enforcer, or Warlord.
I like the idea of the MUL, I just think output could be a little better developed.
