Intel is the opposite. It starts unshared, but the first thing you should do is share the point load across all projects.

I would disagree. Does this not also waste points when projects finish as with tech research? You can coordinate offensive projects finishing at the same time by moving them to the end of the queue one turn from completion until you have enough of them ready to go.
Yes, you are correct IF. I left out the part of switching back to unshared the turn before the project completes. This will save all the points that would have been wasted. It seemed kind of complex to go into on an already complex subject. I like the part about sharing the points keeping you defences up, even if you are not thinking about it. A lot depends on when in the sceem of things you get intel tech. If you get it early, go on the attack, if later, defend until you can combine with others against a single person.
