switching civics from Federal to People's Republic causes HUGE local rebelliousness in all my cities, regardless of no crime, low pollution, etc... the People's Republic civic text says it lowers local rebelliousness but it seems to be doing the opposite (I wanted to switch to it for the bonus to great person generation)
It's a Civopedia weakness, in that it doesn't tell how much it lowers by, and it is comparing that to no-modifier rather than to your current modifier. Having looked at the XML here is what I found:
Local rev index modifier: Federal - -3 vs People's Republic -1 (so both lower local rev index, but federal by 3 times as much)
National rev index modifier: Fed -2 vs PR -3 (you got a slight win there)
Rev index distance modifier: Fed -50, PR 0 (BIG loss here)
Rev index hit on switching into: Fed -80, PR: +70 (BIG hit here)
Other modifiers from REV seem to be a wash.
I think we need to improve the Pedia text in several ways:
1) Display more of the modifiers (many are just not included currently but are important) - REV distance modifier here being a rather important example
2) Be more precise about the modifiers ('reduces local instability' -> 'reduces local instability (2)' - i.e. - include the amount of the modifier)
3) If you are viewing the text from the domestic advisor screen (i.e. - when you are thinking about switching) display the DIFFERENCE relative to your current choices, NOT the absolute (or better yet perhaps, the absolute but with the effective in brackets or something)
PS - this wasn't me volunteering to do this in the short term!
I think DH is rubbing off on you!! 
Thx for making me laugh!!
