BSYs are for using that extra resource production that your planets can't make use of in the first few years.
Echo that one.. bigtime. I've out-produced a number of early neighbours using this approach. I would generally build 5 or 6 BSYs in my first 10 turns of e-build, colonisers in the other turns of course. Put 'em on e-build for a 3-turn coloniser or 2-turn FG/DD, especially if you're Organic. Put a couple of weapons on the first few to defend against the 'early rush' escort.
