First of all, this is an idea that came to my head just a moment ago and I didn't think this all the way through. If you have any problems with it, just say it and not yell and rawr at me. Thanks.
So, Outcasts and Corsairs are big criminal organisations that control a few systems each and probably have some scientists of their own (if not, then who designed their caps?). If they were supplied with large enough amount of Trade Lane Parts smuggled from Ageira, they could probably backwards-engineer them or get enough of them to construct their own lanes. So someone could organize an event involving either taking these over from Ageira and then smuggling them to Omicrons.
As I said, this is a proof of concept and not something already finished, so plz no yelling, if you have anything against, say what and how this could be corrected.
Tradelanes are a strategic target for hostiles, not to mention they focus traffic in one specific spot.
It would not make sense for a unlawful group with many hostiles around them to advertise their supply line like that.

Tell that to Gallics with their own Trade Lane technology.

Who made trade lanes then?
Daam K'Vosh (missing as of human arrival)
Ageira (based on deciphered blueprints of above)
Nomads (first-hand knowledge)

Originally the Daam K'Vosh did, and left the knowledge as heritage to Nomads. Then it was discovered by Humans.

They stole it from other Houses via Junkers/Gallic Junkers.
