massive starvation of resources for Xenon
I think yesterday I figured out one of the reasons for resource sink (or maybe the main one). And, that is the lost build storages. After analyzing my 72h savegame, I got 123 of 261 total (i.e. 46%) xenon's build storages are lost (no station associated with them). But miners still deliver resources to them instead of wharf/shipyard!
This report gave me this idea. I have observed the behavior of xenon miners (quite strange) in their sectors. Now I made a bug workaround and want to check if my game will get better. Then maybe I'll add it to my mod.

That could explain why I see Xenon stations waiting for build materials for around 70 hours and still not getting them, reported it here.

I used your save to check. Removed all lost build storages (all 1055 of 2637, xenon 181 of 208). Skipped 6 game hours. The result is not so impressive, but the xenons are clearly starting to recover.
Perhaps there was also a strong influence of other balancer mods I use, but there are no cheats among them, everything that xenons have had to be built.

Just judging from the fact that in 6 hours after removing the storages, they actually build more in your game than they've in 70 hours in mine, it could indeed be the ghost build storages causing it.
Unless it's actually one of your balance mods that caused them to build those :P
