In the lore, the ships also last alot longer in combat, so its to be expected that say when a station is not going to make it out, they start evacuating. besides that 12k isint 12k military, its more like 5k military/engineers and the rest civilians mulling about and trading. the UGTO is a galatic trade organisation you know.
it dosent make sence to have that big of a platform with no way to suppliment its upkeep costs. so they have people trading and impose a sales tax for things bought/sold in the station, that and stations probably have better facilitys for some things then other buildings. people would also want to be on a military station for the feeling of safety, as in actuality the admirals commanding them wouldint throw them away like time cards to a rival mmo

think of every .1 combat pres as people killed... that seems reasonable
Or, even better... every .01 of resources lost!

1 population and 1 infantry equals 1000 people
(ya i know this makes earth underpopulated. But we can't have 1 million as that would mean a corvette can have 1 million infantry in its cargo-haul.)
even taking that 20% of some people's bombing stats are of population or infantry destroyed. that is a WHOLE LOT of people killed!
