I doubt it will be 'fixed' as it seems clearly not to be deemed 'broken'. Design choice that only xenophobes can choose to enslave only other species. Whether that's a good design choice or not is definitely debatable

This decision is no longer needed as many of them will remain as slaves now. Since sectors are required, the only question is really will we continue to allow slavery(so far yes). If so, some Shantari and Architreuthis will be free and some slaves. Slaves of the empire though, of the Oncorhynchus Collective, not Shantari enslaving Architreuthis directly. There is a separate policy for whether we can have xeno leaders(i.e. Shantari or some other race). We don't have the tech for this but clearly with our approach, even if we had it we would not use it. I think it is reasonable to surmise under this arrangement that the native Architreuthis are in charge of everything.

I'll interpret this as an order for two of our four science ships to be diverted to this task when done with their immediate assignments. That will leave one exploring each arm of the galaxy with the diverted pair headed to the 'war zone'.
