Its not just that. The PBW Version has been changed enough that the AIs would need hardcode changes.

EG: Supplies are a resource. In order to get more, you have to bring solar panels, or fleet with a base that has solar panels. Or build a new ship from scratch (they start with full supplies)
There are no resupply depots, or quantum reactors.
EG2: Cloaking depends on four separate components plus your hull size. You need to combine stealth, scattering and small hull sizes to hide from most races, you need a master computer to hide from psychic races, and tachyon equipment to hide from temporal races.

Those two are probably the biggest problems for the AI.
