Ehh,, i dunno.. i guess i could see how some could be confused. Perhaps remove that all together and add something above it in a colored box. "you have # Empty Mechbays"
I'd call it very low hanging fruit, but with all the polish they are adding every patch, it is something I could see getting a little upgrade if the GUI person has a bit of time.
after all they did just make a store upgrade, so maybe the person is more familiar with it and something that could be squeezed in rather easily. Doesn't seam unreasonable.
My suggestion, is make a new post under the "suggestion Forums"

Give it a title like, Mech bay purchase screen slightly confusing, or something of that nature.
