If you buy all commerce improvements and have a subway this increases the ITC by 10% and gets to the max possible commerce percentage. The 2% default rate brings the old max of 123% up to a more aesthetically pleasing 125%. It's still less powerful that the ITC by itself and requires 3 project slots to obtain.

Personally, I think it's nice and would give me an incentive to boost to 3k infra per city.

Seems too op, max commerce rate is fine but you can't have both improvement upkeep and production upkeep reduction with 1 project .   I'd say say pick one or the other and consider reducing it slightly.

Damn, that’s expensive. Although high tier projects to aim for aren’t a bad idea.

I'd like if Alex could get out ASAP if these will be done or not cause it looks like I have some saving and credit buying to do if so.

As I stated in the main thread for the space project tree that these were developed off of past ideas people had put forth. I'm smart enough to know other people have ideas with merit.
