who is a winner, if..

Basically IMHO, a good Peaceful victory is. If a Player obtains a substantial enough Point lead, that results in VICTORY. That was achieved, mostly by Peaceful and/or Defensive Means.

For Example:
A Science Culture: used Stellar Manipulation to achieve many self Created Planets and or Ring - Sphere Worlds to afford an infrastructure that could maintain Large Fleets to defend his or her Empire.

Engineering Culture: Same as some above but to include Planet Engineering with the all the benefits that Planet Atmosphere and Value Improvements may yield.

Merchants Culture: Thru Trade Agreements and his or her own Cunning that has achieved the goal for Victory in a Peaceful and Defensive way.

Workers Culture: Same as Above, but trugh Resourse extraction and his or her own Cunning that has achieved the goal for Victory in a Peaceful and Defensive way.

This may sound like Role Playing, or AI programming, but I also feel it is a Play Style for many strat gaming Players. Not all of us will want to have a total Shot-em-up style game, if possible, however we all can't be Empire Builders and must deal with the:

Warrior, Schemer, Zealot, Renegades not mention the Berserker Style of play, we encounter in our Multiplayer games

Yeah, SE4 is very realistic.
Or you really think some nice aliens are going to finance an expedition to our system for free?
