I think they should be rare enough.... not much more than three figures. And something about the concept creeps me out on a certain level. There's nothing *wrong* with it as such..... but mass produced people just makes me feel a bit 'odd'.... especially once the process is discovered.
And not all people living in Fenspace are necessarily Sci-Fi/Animé/Game whatever Fans. A great deal probably aren't.... at least not when they first 'emigrate to Australia'. Especially as Fenspace starts growing and growing, economic migration from mundania is going to be a big deal what with almost zero border control and no worrying about work visas and the like. There're plenty of people down there who'll happily do whatever work you pay them to do, not because they find the whole concept interesting, but because the pay is good and it'll go a ways back home.
Then you have the others, fringe groups who want to run their own societies as they see fit free from influence away out in the main belt. There're plenty of folks out there who'll set up stakes on a rock solely to show that their model for a society is a better one. The libertarian Miner stereotype is just one......
