I disagree. While it may be a nice option for those that want it, if it becomes the default i will likely not rejoin KOTH. Starting behind a blackhole as you did is very unusual. And imaging what a great game it would be if you won. Some of my best games were those were at one point I was at a disadvantage and struggled through and won.
For me knowing beyond a shadow of a doubt that there will be one and only one breathable planet in the next system makes the game less exciting. Heck I don't even like the 'no ruins' rule. This too takes away some of the excitment. finding ruins is fun.

Yeah, you could say that's part of the game and the luck of the draw and all
