Average Xan roid count and value is higher though, and the general trend is for Xan catching up to Cath (which they are achieving through the use of the "too weak" fighter fleet).

Xan always finish strongly because their powerful low-eta fleets are more effective later in the round when they have full travel time tech and people aren't as active, thus low-eta fleets can sneak in without being noticed. In addition, Cath has no "invincibility" option against FI - no matter how many beetles they build, there will always be enough Xans to team up to get past them.

Anyhow, drawing conclusions about race balance when we're barely half-way through the round is premature.
