Three pages would have been better than two as well. :) The book is primarily a "visual" guide. I'm astonished at the amount of text we were allowed to pack in. There are some entries that were re-written just to get more words and detail in it. Canon is canon, first of all, so the book is constrained to follow it. The designations for the Falcons are from Bungie and since already established, the Visual Guide made use of them. They were first in the Reach game manual I think. Your method of determining the size of the supercarrier was similar to mine. I just had slightly better resources to do it. Your method was sound. I had your number in mind though, I just couldn't get it down to that. I'm not even keen on how big it is in the first place, but math is math. :)
