Droyne and Chirpers

I have a question on Droyne and Chirper generation.  According to the
"continuation" method of the Alien Module, there should be something like
2 to 2.5 worlds per subsector with Droyne or Chirpers, but "official"
sectors do not seem to have anything like this many.

For example, from Travellers Digest:
Trojan Reach 9   (14 subsectors worth of systems)
Ealiyasiyw 22    (16)
Deneb 10         (13)
Riftspan Reaches 5 (108 worlds)
Reft 4           (4 or 5 subsectors worth)

From Knightfall:
Massilia 10 (16 subsectors)

Other official:
Diaspora 28 worlds
Hinterworlds 21
Vland 13
Spinward Marches 13

The numbers are rough (counted by eye) but should be near enough for this
purpose.  Does anyone know if this is deliberate?  If so, why?  Or was it
an accident or a bug in a generation program?
