You are missing the point. Of course having tons of research facilities around *after* you have already researched everything don't help you. But, you should have scrapped them before then. Your whole assertion in this thread was that empires that focus on research especially are penalized, my view is that they are not.
Nope. My first point was that I wanted more research areas. My second focus was the creation of open-ended research projects that generate intel points.

Your intel comparison doesn't cut it, as the missions are canned, single level operations. The lone programmer can not input a limitless amount of techs so that the research facilities are totally useful throughout the entirety of 'raynor's' game.
I think the point I was trying to make about the intel projects was along the lines of what to do with the research facilities--i.e. create a reseach project that generates intel points so that intel facilities aren't useless after everything has been researched.
