Starsector 0.97a is out! (02/02/24); New blog post: Simulator Enhancements (03/13/24)
Seeing how many fleets can jump you and what kind of multiple battles you have to endure, absolutely not. I'd even say it's too slow even with 100% increased speed from the skill when you have to fight Remnants or fighting multiple fleets when trying to destroy upgraded Pirate/Ludd bases.
I would say that CR recovery is too slow and repair speed is too fast
