So I decided in 2.2 with MegaCorps DLC I would test and see how some of the new planet-side changes affected the machine intelligence play-style. I decided I'd try to aggressively expand with growth traits etc, and since robots have 100% habitabilty anything I find is fair game. On this path of thought I opened up exploration and grabbed the Automated Colonization Units Tradition, since pop build speed is based on replicator jobs, and having a 2nd pop starting there literally doubles that planet's growth out of the gate.

As you can see in the above imgur link, I did not actually get the 2nd pop I should have. Unfortunate for this playthrough, but overall enjoying the update. Figured I'd just list the bug here so it may get documented and fixed.
