Treasure Generator does not output complete information
Issue #150

The treasure generator service itself generates crucial information that is not revealed in the GURPS Calculator’s frontend to it unless you choose CVS export. Compare the following:
Jewelry, five units, no enchantments — coped from the Calculator’s regular output (newlines within each item converted to tabs for clarity):
1 very large bronze Button $15.0 0.24 lbs
1 very large electrum Chain $2055.0 0.01 lbs
1 very large platinum Piercing $2880.0 0.06 lbs
1 very large platinum Plug $14400.0 0.45 lbs
1 very large silver Bracelet $1035.0 0.38 lbs
The same generation, CSV output:
very large bronze Button,1,$15.0,0.24 lbs,,Humanoid,0,,jewelry,,,
very large electrum Chain,1,$2055.0,0.01 lbs,,Leprechaun,-4,,jewelry,,,
very large platinum Piercing,1,$2880.0,0.06 lbs,,Dwarf,0,,jewelry,,,
very large platinum Plug,1,$14400.0,0.45 lbs,,Humanoid,0,,jewelry,,,
very large silver Bracelet,1,$1035.0,0.38 lbs,,Gnome,-1,,jewelry,,,
The fact that only two of those items are sized for regular humanoids seems highly relevant to me, particularly with how the weights are impacted!
For a further comparison, a different generation with the same parameters, copied from the treasure generator service’s HTML output:
1 bronze Bracelet [$18.75, 0.30 lbs; Dragon-Blooded sized (sm:0)]
1 silver Chain [$45.0, 0.05 lbs; Humanoid sized (sm:0)]
1 very large billon Crown [$858.0, 0.08 lbs; Leprechaun sized (sm:-4)]
1 very large silver Button [$285.0, 0.30 lbs; Humanoid sized (sm:0)]
1 very large silver Piercing [$36.0, 0.01 lbs; Gnome sized (sm:-1)]
