I like the idea, although I do think it would've been nonviable.

Remember that Alexander is ultimately optional content, and if you never touch it, then to your story, Alexander barely exists. So if the solution to powering the ship is Alexander, but you haven't done Alexander... what do you even see, does it even work as a payoff?

That said, I did find Alexander as a story to be surprisingly thin on the ground in references, which was surprising to me for how popular it is. Personally, if I were doing a bit of a punch-up on the story, that'd actually be how I'd save the problem of Labyrinthos dragging; have the Illuminati recur as a minor foe to add some action to the proceedings. If there's any group that'd have some fun reasons to mess with a spaceship and/or artificial habitation, it'd be the Illuminati.
