We are agree on the disagree.
At some point the IM with threat level, in my case at least, just stop spawning. Visited several systems, diff states, govs, planets, moons, with and without atmos. Before that, they regurlarly appeared.
And the RNG should be hard finding specific data or material inside those POIs (SDP for me), but not hard to spawn the POIs itself.
If you see my prev screenshots, I found 16 IMs in 2 systems, but none with threat lvl. So I think is somehow broken like the Smear Campaing was before update 5.
