How rare are military-based capital ships like the Polaris supposed to be? And is the rarity even a factor anymore after they've been made available year after year after year?

I think the only aspect of that that I can touch on in my role is the factor of it. From a design and gameplay experience side, it's not something that we factor in, because if we take the current scenario now, imagine the world where we'd released a ship that there were only 50 of ever created. From a gameplay side, we have to consider the scenario that all 50 of those would turn up in the server right now today and not destroy everything and have an equal and enjoyable experience. So from my side, the gameplay side, the rarity of them is not a factor. We have to consider those sort of scenarios.
