It's something I've definitely considered before deciding what strategy to go. Obviously the stats themselves have to be fitting as well, but if 3 competing alliances would be rumoured to go Fi/Co and the other competitor Cr/Bs, we definitely take into account the option of countering Fi/Co and attempting to establish friendly relations with the Cr/Bs alliance.
Otherwise I agree with your points, and am especially interested in not having everything available with the first 3-4 days.
