I always make new warp points to cut-off sections of the map at a black holes center (unless I've built a few starbases in a nebula to garrison new warp point(s).)

It deffinatly helps prevent colonizers expanding in your territory... it's a nuisannce to players (at best), and it can be deadly for the AI. Look at it this way, im the early game ships only have 6 move... if they use their Last half of that movement to enter the warp point (into the BH system), or move within the "kill zone" to go to the warp point... they are going to die (That's 50% of the ships!), that's not counting loss of supplies. Humans will only lose 1 ship, after they know about the BH, they will know to pause on the other side of the WP to be able to get out of the kill zone.
