To avoid arguments, I don’t do this anymore. However, I do see it as plausible from a role-play point of view. Either it's non-stop intensive training, or the crew is split up into Groups so they all get a crack at the training. The end result is more rapid training -- not better training.

Training facilities is a technology a militaristic race would love. If Klingon's actually existed, I'm sure there'd be training facilities on every moon. Non-stop training, yeah.

Well, except that there is no reason why having a moon would help training at all. Being able to build more training facilities in one spot is one thing, but that's not allowed... unless you have a moon. Makes zero sense. Also, since moons are also (unrealistically) rare, it also nonsensically limits the systems where this nonsensical technique can be done. It also can't be done until the race has enough colonization tech to colonize both the planet and the moon in a particular sector. None of that has any sensible explanation. I don't object to the idea that you could build more extensive training facilities in one place and get better training, but the restrictions on where this can or can't be done make zero sense, and also introduce a silly reason for trying to get a moon (or better, two moons) and its planet colonized together. It just doesn't make any sense.
