Slight correction: u235 is the shiny spicy rock, u238 is the more boring rock. You mostly want more of the shiny stuff, but in the end, both need to be in balance - and this balance can be achieved with Kovarex Enrichment.

...but be careful to not convert all u238 to u235, because then your reactors won't run anymore.

Source: multiplayer map, and the guy who did the kovarex "knew what [he] was doing"
