The general effect I threw in as a thought would also give reason to counter-balance the slowness of my proposal to make the BLOB more tanky but slower to spread.

With it being slower to spread it would be less noticeable - but is that really a good thing? I doubt so - it is fun to see any sort of effect from a station-wide affecting danger. Take a rogued AI for example - easily enough the station could rot in pitch-black-darkness for quite a while. That is at least a visually noticeable effect and shapes the mood.

I think a more general noticeable effect on larger station areas could be potentially really fun - oh yeah - I forgot to post two pictures to drive my point home with them zones,...

Let me quickly post'em.
