Nice one!
The only thing that I came up reading this is that maybe the Great Expulsion could have made the fortune of any corporation dedicated to shipping (if they could retrofit their amat engine to fusion) and creating habitats (bubblehabs, hollowed-out asteroids, tunnels under the surface on the Moon, etc...), because the pressure from the refugee from Earth was probably maddening at that point.
I guess this could have been an easy option for AIs escaping the Earth volume: get their hands on an industrial base with a huge demand to satisfy.
Possibly some asteroids already had back-up copies of the AIs transfered there already at the start of the Technocalypse?
Obviously if they could revert to fabbrication methods not subscetible to spawn angry grey goo and operate safely
As in RL war is often a shitshow for the masses but could be a fortune for a fews.
