I think one of my most disappointing experiences is trying to setup a Fanatic Egalitarian federation only to keep having to vote down xenophobe slavers and hurt my federation cohesion every time. AI needs to stop suggesting people whose ethics clash so radically with the ethics of the federation. There are times when the player may overlook that, like the materialist/spiritualist axis or even pacifist/militarist, but the egalitarian/authoritarian and xenophile/xenophobe poles NEED a cold war dynamic that is STRONG to polarize galactic wars around interesting themes. there are times when those last poles can be like that, and I do want to liberate all the droids too, so I think federation level ethics needs to allow for setting things like AI policies, xeno rights, universal living standard laws (slaver federations or utopian federations, not mixes) and so on.
Maybe they can have forced policy shift as an alternative? Like you sign a treaty with the United Federation of Planets you're expected to ascend to its ethics!
