I'd like it if Integration acceptance was based on aspects like:
- Does your empire offer our founder species an equivalent or higher standard of living?
- If our empire is Xenophile, does your empire offer an equivalent or higher standard of living for all our citizens?
- Do your Ethics match our own? -- a Materialist subject should fear integration by a Spiritualist overlord, but a couple of Egalitarians might not mind as much.
- Do your Civics oppose our own? (e.g. Agrarian Idyll vs. Anglers, or Shared Burdens vs. Technocracy) -- this means changes which would cause some upheaval as the integration changed their way of life, even if it's not visible to the player.
