And that is pretty much exactly what I did. Though, I think the hab range was a 1 in 5 close to 1 in 6. Kotk is correct - resources for reds were something like 275 - "around 300". Resources at 2450 were 31k if I remember correct though, I didn't use LF's to keep them populated, I used privateers. I had plenty enough built to do so. It also meant needing to keep less minerals in the ships to keep the pop at a 'just' negative growth of like 100 per year with the planet overpopulated by 200%. Every few years I'd take a run around the planets and adjust the pop back up to the full 200% overpop. With a few of the reds producing a slight surplus from the orbital pop, I had a couple privateers making rounds and picking up excessses.

The main enemy did indeed pop drop on several of the farther reds when they only had 65-100k on them - his pop losses were tremendous.

Though we often ask how and why, we must also do to get the answers to the questions.
