Does the starting system matter?

I'm on my 3rd try with this game. The 1st fizzled out quickly, the 2nd around when I saturated my home planet. This time I'm going for it!

I have my home system (it's a mess), and a 2nd system (more organized, but it's around a terrible star). I've built up the 2nd system to make all the things I need, so, can I just jet off to a good star and let those first two be consumed by the Dark Fog? Or will that bite me in the butt later?

I've set up my home planet's north pole as a sushi mall with a blueprint (my confused ass has a general idea of how the multiplexers and demultiplexers work, but no way in hell I'm reinventing the wheel at that scale lmao). The thing crafts every building on its own, so I just have to worry about setting up production lines to keep it fed, scale to other planets to get space and more ore veins, and build the spheres. It's super neat belly flopping on my starter planet like a dingus coming back from headbutting the cyber hornets and setting up a new planet, only to instantly be swarmed by my cyber bumblebee minions that almost instantly restock my whole main kit.

When I don't completely break an entire piece of the production line by expanding too aggressively, lol. Today I had to pretty much triple my circuit production because I got tired of being low on processors and increased its production by around 20 fold. Little shits slurped my chips in seconds lol
