The attaching is popup of pop approval rating ay a certain point.
Please let me explain because I have used Japanese MOD. There are 3 Rulers with 83% Happiness, 4 Specialists with 73% Happiness and 19 Slaves with 10% Happiness. They are applied stratified economy, total approval rating is 50%.

Now, I will be re-calculated total approval rating.

Total approval rating
= (R Pops * R PP * R :) + Sp Pops * Sp PP * Sp :) + Sl Pops * Sl PP * Sl :))
/ (R Pops * R PP + Sp Pops * Sp PP + Sl Pops * Sl PP)
= (3 * 10 * 83% + 4 * 2 * 73% + 19 * 0.25 * 10%) / (3 * 10 + 4 * 2 + 19 * 0.25)
= 31.215 / 42.75
= 73%

The figures don't add up.
Alternatively, I will a trial calculation by Pops^2 weight, not by Pops weight.

Total approval rating
= (R Pops^2 * R PP * R :) + Sp Pops^2 * Sp PP * Sp :) + Sl Pops^2 * Sl PP * Sl :))
/ (R Pops^2 * R PP + Sp Pops^2 * Sp PP + Sl Pops^2 * Sl PP)
= (9 * 10 * 83% + 16 * 2 * 73% + 361 * 0.25 * 10%) / (9 * 10 + 16 * 2 + 361 * 0.25)
= 107.085 / 212.25
= 50%

The figures add up!
However, I feel something is wrong.
I think the weight should be not a square of Pops, but only Pops.
It might be a bug.

There's been some discussion about this around here somewhere, the consensus seemed to be that there's either a bug of of some sort or an unknown, hidden modifier affecting the approval end result. Nobody knew which might be the case, last I checked. Could just be PDS simply forgot to display one of the modifiers in the tooltips.
