A number of the high-tech worlds are secret or heavily restricted, like Reich-5, Shikaku-Mon, and Caliph. The Lenin world where electric cars were discovered has uneven technological development, so was kind of perfect to steal technology.

But yeah, there's enough high-tech worlds for Infinity to spy on that fusion power would likely have been acquired. And it would have been a big priority for Infinity - definitely would have presented it to "the people of Homeline" as reason to support Infinity.

High-tech worlds also are more likely to have diverged far enough that there's no matching inventor on Homeline, so no having to pay royalties to them.
