Counter Intelligence Questions

Maybe it is subtracting a fixed amount of points from the cost of the CI operation, therebye making it complete faster.
I must say that from this and other threads we all could use a good explanation of how intel works from MM cause it certainly doesn't seem to work like the manual or Q&A explains.

To me it looks like a bug. With this "strategy" from my Last post you can defeat severe intel attacks (multiple 150 K points Tech Espionage for example) just with some 100 points of counter intel !

From what I read and from my own experience the counter intelligence should really be redesigned. I never understood why the simple and to me logical system of SE III counter intelligence was changed. I do like the greater possibilities of the offensive intelligence in SE IV, but the counter intelligence was better in SE III in my opinion.
