Re: Petty Arguments.

The "direct gain" here is twofold.
1/ XP for the cov-opper for a guaranteed success.
2/ The ability of the target to have a higher number of amps (or dists) than would otherwise have been the case. I know that this "tactic" is regularly used to get rid of unwanted research centres.

And regardless of gain it's an agreement between two planets to allow what would normally be considered as a hostile action. "Farming"? Perhaps that's the wrong word. "Cheating" might be a better one.
