I'd have to guess that's a reference to one of the alien technologies you can find in a ruin. I forget the name but the effect says "This ship has the same experience rating as the ship with the most experience in the same fleet." Or something pretty close to that. The biggest effect of experience (so far as I know) is that it modifies your chance to hit.

everyone is modifying their game files, but what if we want to play each other over the internet? How do you decide who got the better modifications? Does the game detect if 2 people got different files?

most of the mods that take place during turn generation (AI mods and such) only need to be on the host. otherwise, you need to talk to who you are playing and make sure that if anyone has any mods, that everyone has the same stuff. I keep a couple copies of the game, one is not modded at all so i can play with people from a common baseline.
