Misprints?

I used the search feature to look for somthing related to this topic, as well as combed through a couple pages of the forums looking for a thread on this topic; I never found on so I'm starting this thread. Still, this may be old news, but I just bought this game today so... but here goes. (BTW I have the BETA 4 version)
There are a number of misprints on the race creation screen. Here is what I've found so far
1. at the screen where you can do some customizing to your race, under the "abilities" tab > " The trade ability reads: By improving your trade ability, the ABOUT of money...". I think ABOUT should be AMOUNT.
2. under the politics tab > the "pacifist", "populist", and "war party" descriptions do not match the bonuses that are shown.
pacifist description: "Choosing this party will increase your social production and influence by 20%". However it bonuses are listed as Social Production: +10; Influence: +20.
populist description: "...they bring a 20% bonus to moral and a 20% bonus to diplomatic skills". Shown bonuses: +10 to both.
war party description: "...50% bonus hit points for starships". Shown bonuses: Weapons: +10; Defense: +10; Soldiering: +15.
So...what am I to believe, the description or the listed bonuses? Is this going to be fixed? Is it do to some recent changing of bonuses without updating the descriptions?
There may be more, but it's getting late and I just dont have time to look for them. I will edit this post if I find others.
I understand that the game is in the process of being updated right now, and I guess is basically still in the BETA stage. But I hope these misprints, and bugs I've been reading about, are fixed in the future. Everything I've read says this is a great game, so I have alot of expectations for it. Remeber Stardock: it's the little things that matter.
