Most of the artifacts and infrastructure has been found on planets. Besides the dyson sphere and hypergate, there's nothing found in space. For a seafaring race, this seems off.

I'll probably respond to this thread another time with some more substantial thoughts, but this little bit jumped out at me. That's not necessarily true.

Artifacts are mined in space, in both Omicron Gamma and Theta. In Gamma's Malvada Field and Theta's Napo Field, they are free floating. Bothof them also use the same kind of asteroid asset.

If you look closely at those rocks, they don't exactly look like natural formations; there are patterned surfaces, what appear to be shatter lines, followed by an internal rockface on the other surfaces. There's also a suspicious visual similarity to some of the detailing found on Nomad hives. The Artifacts are also artificial objects, not things that could be mined from naturally occurring deposits.

What that says to me, is in vanilla at least, this specific pairing - strange "Nomad" asteroids, and freefloating Artifact drops - likely means these are actually ancient debris fields. Not naturally occurring asteroids at all.
