Oh there is another thing about the subsystem level. I'm not sure how the values were decided but either way, we would strongly benefit from having them written down in one single place (maybe within the subsystem array?) so when a new one is added, one doesn't have to go through ALL the subsystems to know what level would be good to use.

Okay, I've made the requested changes.
