Several Knacks and Faculties require a Nanite Surge when forming an Array; Cloud and Sheath already have benefits for being Surged. Does the Surge spent on a Knack or Faculty also count as a Surge for the base Array? If not, is it replacing the benefit completely or can you use multiple Surges when forming an Array? Is there a limit to the amount of Surges that can be spent on a single Array?
It seems pretty clear to me. When you form it, you can spend a surge on option A to get it. You can spend a surge on option B to get it. The two are independent, so you can do neither, one, or both. There's no need for a limit; you're limited by how many abilities you can actually take that add surge options.

You will have to pardon my exceedingly poor reading comprehension (likely the cause of my original question), but I do not actually understand what your answer is.

He is saying that you can spend multiple surges on an array. The surge for a knack does not count as the surge for the base array, you must spend two surges to get both benefits.
