If you have an unstable star, or lack system gravity shields, it can prevent destruction of yoru star (and thereby, of every planet in the system).
And in P&N, with a Temporal/organic, Advanced-Storage race, playing a MAxTEch game to get a feel for it ... I got to a 77B population sphereworld, with a build rate at the shipyard of 117K/117K/117K. Now, THAT is a shipyard! heh!!
