Give it some thought.

a) I assume "infinite" solar day means "Tidelocked" ?
I would prefer Tidelocked then, as that´s the term used in the RAW (index) and the one I would google for.

b) Earth has HI 8. If earth is the gold standard, one could argue that HI 8 should get a seperate color. I don´t really see HI 3 as being habitable. HI 4 can be a breathable atmosphere but with no surface water and extreme climate, so I see HI 4 as the lowest interesting level. Which would mean HI 8, HI 6,7, HI 5,4, would each get a color.

c) The other color-coding would be chrome. Atmosphere, Hydrographics, Temperature are spelled out, and are short enough that a color doesn´t really save time reading. OTOH color might be used for other information: a red dot after world type could indicate high volcanism, a color code for Hydrographics could be used to indicate presence and complexity of native life for example.

d) Even if it would be an exemption: the world type row has enough space after "asteroid belt" to add the resource level. As that´s pretty much the only thing of interest in a belt, how about showing it ?
