Methinks planet SY always have to accelerate production rate, that's why I always try to build SY as one of the first facilities. Tested on high tech start, created a new colony near homeplanet, start building SY 1 , 7.5 years
Sent population shuttles until colony has reached 153 million. After 2.5 years at Last the SY has been 1 turn before completed. Stopped the shuttles to compare the production rates with the next turn:

Before SY = 980/980/980
SY completed, same population, same happiness (jubilant) = 760/760/760

SY production rate penalty alert !
But I fear there is a similar issue in proportions with this...

And I still think, we need a kind of early production rate acceleration facility, maybe a pre-SY facility (after the issue above has been fixed) with limited SY abilities but with a SY production bonus, NOT a malus
