I agree that Outcast influence should be limited for obvious reasons, but I find it rather odd if cardamine should be the source of that. Swap 'cardamine' with 'food', 'water' or 'oxygen', and see why that argument could be used for any human faction in Sirius. Moreover with Sirius flooded with cardamine provided by the OC, it would also be odd if any OC would have a hard time re-supplying cardamine while in the field.
I'd rather say it is the relatively low reproduction rate and the fear of losing valuable OC lives (which count for more for the nation in general, compared to other factions - simple supply/demand logics) that puts a cap on the OC influence.
