Moving fluids over long distances

https://wiki.factorio.com/Pump
Moving fluids over long distances
When a fluid is created, it can travel up to 320 tiles from it's existing location until it needs a pump. Pumps reset this value, allowing fluids to travel for another 320 tiles until another one is needed. If a pipe has been overextended, a warning will show on the map. Multiple pump effects don't stack.

why is this information not in the textbook? or in factoriopedia?

It’s on the wiki, and the wiki exists for a reason - even maintained by paid employees. We aren’t aiming to put literally all information the wiki has into the game.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
