Sabotage in Akypor Forest South

The following project has been set up on the second smelter in the Xanth Home by someone who simply wandered into town. It is clearly not capable of completion by us, our steel production being 500 grams every couple of Cantr years. So I'd be grateful if it could be cancelled. I should also mention that he claims to come from Siom, most unlikely given his age.

PROJECT: Manufacturing steel (gas)
Participants:
Initiator: Haidku of Siom (1142 AFN, bit damaged) a man in his twenties (1145-1)
Progress: 0.0 percent
Materials: iron (0 grams used of 4800 grams needed)
propane (0 grams used of 1600 grams needed)
limestone (1290 grams used of 16000 grams needed)
Objects:
Tools: bellows

It would also be helpful if these caps could be set much lower. I've never encountered a project for 8000 grams of steel using propane anywhere and half that amount would be beyond the resources of almost everyone.

Please report this to flyspray, as the Players Department can't fix the technical part of it.

Personally I dont see this as a CR breach, Sabotage is very in annoying but doesnt exactly call for a Breach. In war you would like to close down your enemies production, take out his machines if you can.

Sabotage in principle isn't a breach, it's a good idea.

Sabotage by this mechanism (which is the only one that exists to my knowledge) is considered a bug exploit, and thus is a breach.

It is not an intended feature that you can destroy a machine by sticking 1 gram of appropriate material in it.

Any behavior that isn't a feature is a bug, therefore...
