Consequently, the ability to hit bigger gals is being squeezed from two directions, whether or not they are any better/worse at defence is a completely seperate factor that has no bearing on the above (unless it is worse to the extent that alliances didn't have to cover gals as thoroughly).

Everyone starts from the same base point, what seperates everyone is all to do with how well you play the game. the reason you have bigger gals and smaller gals, is generally because at some point in the round the bigger gals don't recieve incs for a period of time and because they're generally better at roiding/initting then the smaller gals, they are able to remain competitive and fly under the radar for a couple of days which allow them to get fat, build value and make themselves harder to hit through organisation and team work.
Basically if you give incs to a gal for a whole round they wont be a top gal regardless of how many member planets they have as long as you can cover the majority with your gal raid
