There is a problem with that, though. The Waptoria are based out of the Mirus Galaxy, meaning that if they get attacked, the Alliance will be forced to go all of the way over there to defend them in accordance with the terms of the treaty.

Travel to the Mirus Galaxy through Hyperspace could take weeks, if not months. By the time they get there, the Waptoria would have probably been destroyed or no longer need their help. It just doesn't seem practical.

Furthermore, the Waptoria can't realistically make any meaningful contribution to conflicts in the Katar Sector. To accept the Waptoria as members of the alliance seems to be against their interests.

Perhaps the Waptoria and the Alliance could have some sort of entente instead?
