PRT still gets OAships (which are currently useless on own planets) but TF costs less rather than being instant.
Instaforming, and the insta-revert, are the main brokenness about CA.

I agree on CA. The instaforming is broken and also makes the OA useless except for trade, and also removes the synergy between CA and TT.
If 50% discount is not enough compared to other PRTs, it would also be possible to do limited instaforming by altering the hab formula and place less penalty on suboptimal values, or give them some sort of extra bonus (e.g. let non-penetrating scanners also discover hab, or give the scout an inbuilt scanner that detects hab at 40ly but not pop, orbiting fleets, etc)

OK: How's about.
- No Instaforming.
- 40% discount on TF (cf+ IS defences discount), stacks with TT.
- Retro bombs be W10/Bio6 (i.e. not Bio12), lower weight (~15kT) and take a little less minerals/res to build (10/10/10/30? rather than 15/15/10/50).
- DNA/RNA scanners have "limited" pen scanning (cf+ IT gate scanners) for CA (maybe TT?).
- Orbital Adjusters retained.
