you realize it's an exploration game right, so I don't rly see the point to spoil all star base locations, but thats just me I guess.

To save RU from traveling or to prevent running out of fuel. You will still be doing a lot of exploration even with all starbases unlocked.

For me the most important issue is that discovering starbases unlocks new equipment. It's a hassle to fly around in the starter stuff. So for me it's a convenience to know where to find them to make the other parts of the game less inconvenient. If I would stumble randomly about them I would be angry about the opportunities I missed because I did'nt know them earlier (especially lander gear, bigger cargo + fuel).

Logic isn't really high on the list of priorities for whiners

As for why. I have a better question: why is every solar system, planet, asteroid, worm hole, and speck of dust mapped yet no one bothered to jot down the giant, hightech, mysterious alien space stations sitting around in subspace? For that matter, why would the greys tell us they unlocked them for us but not where they are? None of the other aliens we talk to have wondered what they're for or remember seeing them?

It seems like a timesink added as an afterthought because they realized the game might be too short.

Knowing Starbase locations is immense help to newbies who have hard time starting. You can choose whether to use that info or not and you still have to actually get to them to activate them.

We actually have dialogue options to talk about starbases with the Tywom. Now, I can understand why the Tywom wouldn't have the locations of starbases in the upper half of the map (their ships don't come back), but they should at least have the locations of many starbases of the lower half of the map.

Also, if an enemy sees you using a starbase? Their really should be a warfleet waiting for you when you gate back to that starbase, especially if it's in the enemy's home territory.
