This seems to be a pretty global issue with most explore missions. Currently hitting B'Tran (Admiral level) explores. Yet getting the same data I did in my light cruiser.

The "gather 5 space anomalies" and pretty much ANY ground mission gives red data- lowest, type of data. Some space missions now give correct data loot items, but most ground seem wrong, plus those anomaly-gathers in space.

And while we're wishing, it'd be nice to be able to exchange data types for the ones I'll actually need if I want to get tactical and science research contacts to tier 3...
