Many problems with this idea. First, you still need the bases. No matter if you build them with base space yard or a facility space yard, you have to build them in a starbase hull. Unless you are talking about a mod. And it takes about a dozen space yards to make a ringworld, and about two dozen to make a sphereworld. And it can only build one at at time. Your facility is going to take longer to build a dozen starbases one at at time then 12 pase space yards each building one starbase would take. Unless, again, you are using some mod.

Also, I don't think this idea would work to begin with. Because I am fairly certain the game only allows you to create a star in the center sector. I could be wrong about this Last point though. It's been a while since I have tried it.
