Prior to the update we had 5 core systems. Compared to 10 Liberty, 9 Gallia, 8 Rheinland/Kusari.

All I can say is that the rename and reclassification is a direct result of Leeds, Edinburgh and Dublin being taken from us as core systems, and in Leeds and Edinburghs case, completely ruined.

the more sovererign systems you have the less whales can dock. rebuild edinhburgh and leeds. grow in the north of dublin but stop taking it always from the zoners.
furthermore. bretonia has to pay a lot of money to liberty. they need quick money, and thats trading with gallia. not an expensive war in the omegas. there is no sense in it. the omegas didnt run away. the time liberty wants his money back is running away.

I don't really feel that this is fair statement. Alberta was an Ageira test site, Kansas is a no man's land, Puerto Rico shouldn't even be blue. So Liberty gets 8 systems.
Kusari - Tohoku, the alien stronghold? Seriously? Chugoku and its Dragons?
I'll give Kusari 7 at best.
Rheinland - Dresden, Hessia. Munich, dark mattered'd.
Rheinland has 6.
Honestly, the most exhausting and morale breaking part of this job is dispelling disinformation and paranoia.

Bar's should still reference the old name of Omega-3 and people living there won't ,realistically, completely agree with the change either. Or even if they are indifferent they'll be used to calling it Omega-3.
A system having two names but the more lawfully backed one being the one presented on the map makes sense.
And it's not like the NPC's will stop saying Omega-3 when hailed.

The original vote was to rename the planet, so if somehow what players desire by simply voting is somehow the basis for development, then why not so the planet as well.
As for the system count, I don't disagree that the systems you mentioned are not house systems, yet the navmap keeps them coloured, because Vanilla treated named systems that are linked to the house naming scheme as that houses colour, regardless of defacto ownership. Yet for some reason Leeds, Dublin and Edinburgh were stricken from Bretonia and the same standards were not applied to other houses. Why? Because developers wanted to send a message to Bretonia telling us to back off from our former systems, and that Enclave are untouchable. If you're striving systems off, apply the same logic to all houses.
Oh and add Puerto Rico to the systems that aren't house controlled but coloured.
So, burning in flames, Stirling will fall on El Sydnay instead on Gran Canaria. No big deal, except if she falls on a chili sausage factory. That would prove devs are toxic bunch.
In any case Exeter we Sairs will rename to Granada, or New Mexico.
