I don't think that changes anything much. As being decided - the faction must have only 1 official faction representation it and Corsairs are the exception just because they had 3 faction already in the official status to the moment. I'm not saying I'm favoring this decision since it's almost impossible to overthrow the official faction from it's place, they need to frak up royally for it to happen, but as it is the logic is okay. After all the rules are only working good when there is no exceptions for anyone in their application.
