[[WMG: Replicated buildings degrade quickly]]
Ever wonder why when you take over an enemy section their buildings are in a bad way? Items created though the MatterReplicator require constant maintenance, so when an enemy is defeated there are no scuzzers to maintain then and they start to break down.

[[WMG: The stations are LostTechnology]]
Notice how the stations have teleporters as lifts, but teleporters that work on organics are rare outside this? Nobody knows how they work and other teleporters are dangerous, expensive or don't work on (living) organic life.

[[WMG: All stations are host to an aggressive mold]]
Its why the building need constant cleaning and maintenance, its why people keep going to the sick bay, its why goods left on the deck spoil so quickly.
