I understand why points in FT2.5 *shouldn't* convert to cash, but in
the back of FB1 it explicitly gives a points to credits conversion
factor. It even makes some sense, because if points and price didn't
track with one another, there would be a sweet spot for the
price/performance ratio and you'd see less variety in ship design by
the major nations.

Admittedly, this is treading on very thin ground. For one thing, it
totally discounts comparative advantage. But as a rough approximation,
it would be a useful guideline for relative costs.
