Massively overly optimistic. To add any sense of importance at all to player-driven RP on a large scale (such as what House governments might deside to do), it would have to be taken for granted that their actions would have actual consequences. This would necessitate either a massive shift in not only the rules, but the philosophy behind the rules, the development team's attitude and guidelines, or both. Even if we were to entirely change the geopolitical landscape of Discovery overnight and somehow assume that players and their roleplay would adequately adapt, I don't see those other necessary changes happening.
