Well I would worry about that if maintaince ever slowed down my building but it doesn't unless I am building stellar manipulation and then if I blow up your star all your fighter go away anyway . The truth is if you build a good infrastructure maintaince is non existant because you are bringing in more minerals than you spend anyway. If I didn't build ships at every planet that wasn't building facilities the minerals would just be wasted and lost anyway so the maintaince is a plus because at least my minerals are useful.
