Like, it keeps overwriting it, because either they meant to display all of them and never coded a way to do that, or there was a miscommunication between the UI designers and the programmers, or the UI was originally going to be different and include a spot for each sector to have a rating? When you think about it, no sector appears to be related in any way to any of the others. All seem to be handled independently. Your retrieval/rating/etc in one sector appears to have no bearing on subsequent sectors. So, why should the grades be any different?
I've been wondering myself if those letter grades were only meant to be a cosmetic thing and not actually have any effect on the airship whatsoever, at least that's what it feels like at this point.

purely RNG. You could try upgrading your forecastle to help with this?
