The trade/research treaty in Proportions is extremly profitable, it will take years and years of colony development to match the benefits of trade. Apparently, AI understands it and beheaves accordingly.
More likely the slower rate of expansion is what is controlling this. The AI typically are quite passive in standard SEIV until your territory starts butting up against theirs. Once you colonize in a system they have claimed, or in some cases a system next to one they have claimed, they start to become more hostile towards you. Since Proportions expansion is slower, it should take longer for this to happen naturally.
