So I think that was a good explanation, if it's the true on I don't kbnow as I hadn't heard of it before.
Ah, except that two empires can launch 100 miunes each in the same sector. This has always been allowed and I have never heard anyone complain about it. This fact alone is enough to demonstarte that the 100 mines per sector is not intended to be a realistic universe limit. It's a game thing to prevent people from putting thousands of mines up and bringing the game to a halt. You don't have to have an explanation for it that makes sense other than that.
