What is more special about the colony ship than the population transports? There is this great expense and time to get 1 mil pop on an empty world, but then you can send many millions more to it much, much more quickly. Seems inconsistent to me. Yes, setting up the colony is expensive, time-consuming, difficult, etc. But, so is adding more room to the colony to house all those new people.

And why do colony ships always have move 2? Shouldn't they get a bit faster with better engines?
