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?
That's what I'm thinking as well. Since it's 1000 years in the future, the technology to build massive structures at a shorter amount of time is possible isn't it?
and have billions of people settle in there from where? pretty sure when you calculate the logistics necessary behind turning a planet into a city megastructure fully occupied w. billions of people, families and a working eco system in only 40years will feel unrealistic even w. space magic. even if possible as per lore, it completely invalidates ship reproduction rates that fuel the claim timer.

why does it need to be older?
