Everything I say here is just my opinion. 
In my opinion the current implementation of system description feels off.
For example , we have tones of systems without any description , and in some cases a faction is used as a description.
Why is this even a issue to me?
Well its because looking at a map and it not telling me about the area but about a political entity or a religion based around food , seems off when looking at a map.
But those elements should not be removed from the game , just maybe put in a better location (IMO)
How would I like this to be ''fixed''?
Procedural generation ! yes it would be a big effort , but I think it would be awesome.
Multiple formats descriptions such as (Name of system) is a (Type of StarSystem) with (X) (bodies) its current leader is (Name of faction) (If ''unique'' faction such as a player one or a big faction have its description) if a tourist beacon is present make note of them.
What about systems found outside of human space? No change needed for those.
A big issue with the current system is some factions are abandoned or have been overthrown , and yet the galaxy map treats it as if they are the only intresting thing in the system.
If having a player description is not possible , I do think something needs to be done with factions being the description of a star system it hurts the ilusion a bit and cheapens player factions IMO
