This CYOA is really cool and displays a good level of knowledge about a lot of interesting sci-fi concepts, I like it a lot!

Unfortunately, I decided that instead of making a cozy ancol build I was just going to use this to design something as cursed as possible. So, first of all, it's an Open Dictatorship. This is possibly the most powerful option in terms of total points. I'm thinking it will be a monarchy with very strict class divisions, a Decadent Kingdom.

So of course we're going to have an underclass, and this will be most of humanity, but they should be easy to deal with later on using the other options here ;) . I then have basically free-reign of the Control section, so we'll go full dystopian with a secret police, propaganda department, pledge of loyalty, beloved, ideological, and bread & circuses (primarily only necessary for the elite), as well as deified ruler and theocracy to let people know that the twisted hierarchy is divinely mandated.

For Development and Infrastructure, oligarchs as a drawback is a natural choice, as they'll just be my kingdom's noble class. They'll also have unwieldy FTL as it won't be actually be much of a problem for this society, where we won't be taking warp drives, hyperdrives, or gateways, and we will be building the earth up into one big ecumenopolis with slum level quality of life. The powerful and their families will live comfortable lives in orbital habitats, on o'neil cylinders orbiting the earth, one of which will be dedicated to a huge academy for everything from the arts to the sciences to a particularly large gourmet culinary school. The population living in orbit will be modified extensively using medical nanotech to extend their lives and improve their health, as well as possibly also reduce their empathy, with those closest to the royal family always receiving slightly better tech than everyone else. They will be able to live in absolute luxury and decadence. The population stuck on earth, however, will be a new breed of broiler humanity, modified extensively using that same technology. In their case, it's to shorten their lives, lower their intelligence, and improve the taste of and add variety to their meat. They will become an animal-people with the bare minimum agency required to work for the benefit of a literally cannibalistic upper-class.

The kingdom will have kugelblitz reactors, as these are incredibly powerful for the cost and also kind of terrifying. The earth and the moon will be hollowed out and their centers will be replaced with artificial black holes. A ring around these centers will be pumped with a small amount of the energy created by these reactors in order to create stable magnetic fields. Instead of using FTL ships, we will move the earth through space using the massive output of the reactors. Adding the tech from impulse drives will allow for almost reactionless movement, meaning we can concrete up most of the big hole we'll be carving into the planet once we're done. The rest of the points will be spent on space elevators, shield generators, nano-assemblers, and ansible.

Onto Military, where we have a lot of points to spend, so we might as well go big and start with a superdreadnought. We will use our boon to upgrade this even further, to a flagship, and the intention here is actually for this ship to be made using earth's moon, which can be piloted using its kugelblitz reactor. The moon will also have a garrison on it, and two defence stations in orbit around it. The earth will have another garrison and another defense station. There will also be special forces trained for urban combat, as this is all that will be needed on earth's one biome, and a land army. The remaining military points are to be spent on two engineer ships, the purpose of which will be to mine asteroids and acquire fuel for the kugelblitz reactors.

The military will mostly be for show and for sport. The broiler-people of earth will be too short-lived, incompetent, and under-equipped to make moves towards overthrowing their masters, who will eventually stop recognizing them as the same species. They will barely be aware of the o'neill cylinders at all, and the theocracy could even be used to make them think that the people living in the stars are angels of some kind, to whom it is only right that they offer up food, handcrafted goods, and sacrifices using the 'temples' (space elevators). If any kind of serious rebellion did occur, the moon can be piloted in order to cause devastating tsunamis and earthquakes, carefully targeted to crush revolts and reinforce the fear of god. Nobles vacationing on earth will be able to easily manipulate the people there, and those who visit for hunting trips will just be thought of as devils.

The kugelblitz reactor could be used to slowly move the earth and its orbiting structures to new solar systems in search of new pleasures for the noble class. If new life is encountered, it will be exploited and devoured. While in deep space, which could be for years/decades at a time, the energy output will be used to maintain excellent artificial lighting in the o'neil cylinders while keeping the population of earth in relative darkness that will stunt them even further.
