Nah, I think it's just an oversight. Hundreds of thousands of lines of code in the main program, a megabyte or more of basic game data for things like basic planets and sectors and ships, and 20 AIs X a dozen files or so. It's adds up to a mass of detail that no single mind can fully comprehend at once, I suspect.

I've modified my own Compenhancement.txt to give WPs the save mount advantages as bases, but with even better size/power ratio since WPs only go to 600kt. It helps quite a bit for AI planetary defense. If I can get the AI to put a lot of satellites with PDC over important planets with lots of WPs on them, it may reach the point where you can't take them out without major losses.
