In two more test games, I used Add Existing Empire, then Edit to look at the settings. In both cases, the race had only used 2000 of the 5000 starting points. This was with the Sergetti and Fazrah.
I also notice that the General_AI files always list the Advanced Characteristics Last under each option.

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the
human mind to correlate all of its contents. We live on a placid
island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was
not meant that we should go far. -- HP Lovecraft, "The Call of Cthulhu"
