Sure Reid and that's a far more legitimate argument than saying "It was vanilla so it cannot be changed".
Yanagi did, most probably, attract more people. If it were my decision I would've added the sair and 'cast bases into Sigma 17 or something and left Yanagi as is. However, the devs are trying to not create any new base entries so recycling existing ones is the order of the day.
As I said, I wouldn't be opposed to a Junker base popping up in the same region, but there would need to be some kind of incentive for it.
