All EMP files are invalidated, since the number of racial traits has changed.
I suppose that the EMP records the chosen racial traits in a "yes,yes,no,no,yes,no" manner, thus confusing SE4 when it ends at the wrong time.
Randomly generated races do not suffer that problem unless traits are removed, since they pick traits by name according to the AI text files.

The blank universe is a wierd quirk... just start a second new game, and you won't see it again, until you change the racial traits again.
(Even when you shut down & reload SE4, it dosen't come back... very wierd, but only happens once per mod)
