Not really, the Angara, Kett, and Remnant were already there. You're just showing up in the middle of their dispute. The comment was implying your own people developed FTL and fucked everything up, not that you landed in a shit show

There's a side quest chain in Starfield that has a generation ship arriving at a planet they claimed centuries ago only to find it's a corporate owned resort planet.
