We have epic scope, but can we even dream for dynamic galaxy and background simulation? Not from Frontier - they cut all costs regarding centralized servers and without huge investments it is not possible, even their early goals for technical implementation on background simulation required:
Low overhead for processing
Low overhead for data storage
Low data access requirements

What the heck can you build in 400 billion star systems with such technical limitations?

Sadly they even choose to make all starport services persistent except missions, commodity prices are same for all players, everyone can buy same set of ships and modules, but missions are not persistent...npcs are not even logged but just spawns for players, can BGS be done simpler than this? No.
