While density is kind of an advanced concept, I think it's important, as it helps players make better use of bulk bins and other containers. I think it's useful info! But not a high priority for newbies to learn, so your idea of a notice/warning to that effect is good.
:: 1) Density has no effect on bulk storage bins. The only measurement that matters for that is Volume L. 2) It has no effect on how much stuff fits in any container. I think your confusing an indirect relation ship and assuming that it explains limits. Volume limits what can be stored in containers, and weight limits what we can drag, pick up, and carry.

The use of division in your example over-complicates things, and assumes that the container only carries one kind of item. The 100 item limit on non-bulk-bins is not relevant to this article except for example item limits in a table like those in the article [[container]].
:: 1) The example shows how a container's volume is consumed by objects. It might be complicated but its not an incorrect assumption. 2) the 100 item limit is important to mention because users will think they can put 1,000 corn in a Small barrel, it has the capacity to hold that many.[[User:Joedobo|Joedobo]] 06:46, 17 April 2011 (UTC)
Yes, I know there's already a table in [[bulk storage bin]], I'm the one who added the weight and weight/volume columns. There is also the useful table in [[container]]. I'd still like to see a unified table by item with all possible items, maybe with an additional column for what bulk/other-size containers they fit into. So maybe this page is bad place for that, and that would be a separate project.
:: and I finished adding many of those measurements on the bsb table that where ?'s. A unified table would be nice. I wish wiki tables weren't so big and scary looking.[[User:Joedobo|Joedobo]] 06:46, 17 April 2011 (UTC)
