And if there are NO calls for satellites (or some minimal number, like maybe a "must have" line of 2 satellites; or even a missing unit construction file), the minister calculates the 40% as 0 satellites and therefore launches all satellites.

I would say, you found the solution to this mystery. 
Geo: Yes, it will work, I do it all the time. The only thing is you must have unit already present on the planet otherwise you cannot give the launch order. After that it doesn't matter if you actually have a unit present to launch, the planet will try it every turn again.
