Yeah - and make it all moddable with something like the RDL (Rules Description Language) of the sadly departed Stars! Supernova Genesis! It seems what we want isn't so much a 4X game but rather a build-your-own-4X-game kit!
Here's a feature I think someone suggested for SE4... warp points of varying sizes such that you can't send a ship through a warp point smaller than the ship. So do you attack the obvious route that restricts you to smaller ships, or use dreadnoughts but take the long way around? Perhaps longer warp-points would be smaller - sort of like Stars! stargates, you have to trade off distance for capacity - or the warp point creation components would have a maximum size as well as maximum distance...
