Power armor section

The original description was written as if someone like this guy was explaining this whole power armor thing to grunts. Seeing that this was clearly military gear created used by military personnel I thought it was both fitting and fun. It was intended to be both humorous and informative.

But first after the removal of the hints, that helped expand and clarify the tone and purpose of this whole joke and now with the latest rewrite, I don't think this section works anymore. The tone is all over the place and the humorous intent is diluted and extremely unclear, which leads to even more confusion.

TBH I rather have the whole text in the power armor description section streamlined with the rest of the wiki (so, aseptic and purely descriptive) than what we have now.

EDIT: I just wanted to clarify that this is nothing personal, neither from my part nor towards KA101's edit. I just was trying to explain why I think it worked before and IMO it doesn't now. And, as I said, I think the better course of action would be to simply streamline this section "for the greater good" and to simplify further edits.
