But any reasonably large, well populated system with resources worth fighting over will divert at least SOME of those resources to basic security concerns, like knowing who is in their yard, and keeping track of when they arrive and depart. The closer the BG gets to any place interesting, the more likely it will pop up on someone' occlusion monitor. Still, space is big.
