Would it be better if construction was removed?

1. Pulling items from a base subtracts cortium each time. 2000 cortium for a silo. 2000 cortium for another silo, without even placing the first. A base can drain to reserve in seconds, because the silo cannot be locked. And bought items do not refund.
2. Placing a vehicle pad seems to bypass the reserve limit, if the owner of the pad is not the silo owner.

Even the second one results in a router base that can run out of fuel if random people discover it, and they place their own vehicle pad and bind at the tube.
And if people decide to actively grief with it, there's no real indication.
