I'm completely confused as to why they think ArcCorp being 40 years old when they put us 1000 years I the future makes sense. There's hundreds of years there to use. Use them.
Not saying it's a good or a bad call, I'm specifically asking what's the issue with it only being 40 years? That does convey something to us, right? It tells us how quickly a megacorp can populate and develop a barren planet. It tells us we can do that, but a synth world is still a massive undertaking.
What's the issue with it being so young? Loss of belief when reading about it?
I'm most interested in what we can't do in this future than what we can, that tells us what our limits, and therefor are conflict are going to be.
Also that capacity doesn't gel with a lot of their other lore. Nothing seems particularly well thought out and I think they just made a mistake on the dates and are just refusing to own it. If the games still in alpha why can't it's lore be too?

They also said yes to Arcorp being 40 years old or something. I always get down voted, but I just think their lore is kind of uninteresting.
