Why, again, were the Probe Spawns nerfed?

When I want a probe, I teleport to one of my Ocean spots during a bloodmoon and head straight up. Never takes long for the probe to show.
 
I only want probes to get banners from Martians. Plating is useless to me and I've got all of the saucer drops I care about. With my boss/invasion arena, the Martians are not any kind of threat, so I really don't want them all that often, nor do I want to sit around in space waiting for a long time for a probe to show up. Since blood moons happen all the time, it's useful to take advantage of that, assuming I'm not using the blood moon for something else (lately it's been squid and snails in the ocean).
 
Do you need plating? I have 3 stacks lying around, and I won't be using them anytime soon.

As posted above, I put a table with a water candle on it, and three times now I've gotten invasions within 60-90 seconds, but thanks for the offer!

I managed to all-but finish the house I was building (I'm like... 20 blocks short) so it's all good.
