SNIP...

But there are still many situations where HE can be very effective and competitive, so I think it is a mistake to count them out or overlook them.

Indeed, if you discount and overlook the HE in your galaxy it will eat you in the late game. But like AR it has to survive to grow into that galaxy devouring monster. And in somes ways HE is even more vulnerable that AR in the early game in that it is vulnerable to popdropping. I tend to look at an HE neighbor as a crop to be harvested, particularly if I'm playing IS. The HE does me the service of producing colonies everywhere and all I have to do is produce freighters and population to harvest the planets and accumulated minerals and maybe tech bonuses, and of course factories and mines on worlds I actually want, before the HE can put up a credible set of defenses. Yum!
