I think that's a serious option to consider. However, there is one big problem with it: the identity of the races is tied very closely to the type of ships they have. If you take that away, Zik will play exactly the same as Cat. To a large extent, that is already the case. At tick 300+ you do the exact same thing whether you're Ter or Xan. In my mind, there would have to be a big upside to compensate for turning the races a grey soup. I don't see one.

What might help Etd specifically is if we made it a little more focused. Not a bit of everything, but a mix of just two types, for example.
