I put a lot of hours into ED and this is one of the aspects of the game that really annoyed me. Couldn't the devs recognise that the existence of these tools represented a massive failure of the in game UX? They had this huge galaxy map view, a fantastic technical achievement, but it was barely even searchable! So you had to tab out of that pretty view to eddb.io to do anything at all. The same applied to so many different mechanics. Sure, Road to Riches was cheating, but it only existed because there was no mechanic in the game to make exploration more profitable than random chance.
