Civilopedia: List of Topics That Cover Only The Current Age

[PatrickTheProgrammer]

Some of the categories in the Civilopedia cover all ages, and some of the categories cover only the current age.

- Civilopedia shows only current age information for:
Units;
Technologies;
Civics;
Civilization Specific Civics;
Governments;
Civilizations.

- Civilopedia shows all age information for:
Wonders;
Improvements;
Buildings;
Map (Biomes, Natural Wonders, Resources);
Legacies;
Leaders;
Concepts.

1. I believe this is a (slightly) bad thing, and hope that in the future the Civilopedia will be expanded to cover all ages.

2. Can anyone come up with a reason Firaxis did this? Obviously the Civilopedia has access to all of the Unit descriptions (for example), and Firaxis added extra logic to exclude non-current Age information. I'm not too worked up over this, but it did trip me up a few days ago, and I'm interested in a peek into the mind of someone who thinks this is a good idea.

The closest thing i can think of it is that all 3 aged are technically separate games but I would prefer if the civilopedia covered all the ages

I like that at a glance I can see what's pertinent right now--maybe a tab would be helpful.
