We are likely talking options that could be turned on as part of a games settings.

If mass drivers may collect minerals (perhaps worth one mine per square of warp speed), then perhaps HW may lose their special non-deplete status and AR gets a super efficiency rating for its mining. To me, the special mineral status of a HW seems goofy.

The concentration of minerals in space might vary based on:
a) mass drivers sucking up minerals
b) minerals slowly settling back on to planets
c) ships getting blown up, mineral packet decay, etc adding mineral dust

It may also be fun to play with the chances of random comet strikes, for instance be able to increase the number of small strikes.
