Arcean abilities not assigning properly?

Just started a new game and though I'd try playing as the Arceans. I noticed they had a +20 moral naturally so I decided to put another 20 points in figuring I'd be able to raise taxes pretty high without taking a bad moral hit. Well I look at my initial colony and their moral is 99%. I mouse over to the number and it displays the statistics, but it says that moral from "native ability" is 32%. Shouldn't it be 40%? Sorry if this isn't a bug and my native ability is 8% less than I though it would be for some reason I've overlooked, but if anyone can give an explanation I'd be very appreciative.

This is because the morale bonus gets reduced by the population of the planet.

I know, but shouldn't the native ability still be 40%? It started at 20%, I added 20% with race customization points, 20 + 20 = 40, not 32.

Ok I looked at it again and the native ability is different for each planet. I guess I don't know what native ability means then. I thought it was something else.

The amount it shows there would not be your actual native ability, but how much that planet's morale is boosted *by* your native ability, AFAIK.
