Note that you are talking about these 3 germaniums like these are saving some major $$$. Dont you see that this IFE costs like 1 resource more from 10 factories? Say your 10 factories give 12 resources and you got IFE, other guys 10 factories give 13 resources he got no IFE. "Now you can build 21 factories since you got 3 more germ", and have 25.2 resources, he can build only 20 factories and have 26 resources. Who componds better? And do not forget he got 8% more econ per planet once done.

<edit>Oh, hang on a minute. I re-read your statement and now I get what you're saying. Yes your point is somewhat valid.<edit>
I get the bit about eventually being able to build a better economy because you had more starting points by not choosing IFE, but if your engines cost "3 germ per engine built" and you build 50-100 early ships, then that's a cost of "one factory not built per ship" (assuming G box ticked).
Your resources per factory built will eventually be better, but your initial overall resources won't be because you have a shortage of germ.
My point is about getting the race off to a reasonably good start and thereby (hopefully) grabbing more colonies than the other guy with slow and expensive engines Sneaky
