I think we may have some disagreement about word "commonly banned" here. I said that they are commonly banned in large games, and large games count for maybe 5% of total games. I am banning them in my game for 24 players, I agree that maybe fixing costs etc could be better, especially for Astral Corruption. Generally it is just instant fix to a bigger issue of some potencially game-breaking tactics [mostly ones that target part of nations, usually bigger one, and cannot be resisted by any means, while that nations don't have a similar way to retaliate].
