"Relatively harmless"

Wiki "Contam Points" vs Contamination
As far as I can tell, contam "points" - being 1000x smaller than what's stated in the coded (see player.cc:3959 (0.29.0), etc.) - originate from the wiki. So why keep it? Right now I added some out of place warnings to any place that cites contam. Displaying it as 5 instead of 5000 does help readability, and inertia is a strong force.
