No one said it was being implemented. I'm, personally, in favor of any change that causes the player base to fight more tenaciously over a smaller set of bases. This 'let's go hack empty base x where there is no resistance' stuff isn't exactly what you'd call exciting for either the attackers or the defenders. They made the world a little too big. I'm not saying the matrix is necessarily the only solution, but it would do the job of shrinking the world.
