Would be great if someone could explain to me what FACS Detail is for?

    It's basically the intensity of expressions. If you have it cranked all the way up, face movements like furrowed brows and clenched jaw muscles will impact the face more strongly. It can be helpful to turn it down if you want to move the face a lot, but the character is a toon or little kid or otherwise looks really uncanny with the kind of strong face muscle motion you'd realistically see in an adult expression. 

    In the example here you can see it mostly in the brow.

    Thank you so much for taking the time helping me with this, I had no clue what it was for.

    Happy to help! :D It's similar to Zev0's Expression Smoother, but I like that it's included with G9.
