I’m a developer so I can add the feature myself if time or effort by the current developer is currently restricted or constrained. Although I’m under no impression that’s the case, just simply offering my technical expertise for free to add this feature.
According to the developer Shazzypaz: "The designer and publisher did indeed approve this change." [Source] So someone is going to have to do the legwork to get approval. There is already a game suggestion ("Choose final number of VP to end the game (ex. 40, 50, or 60) so game isn't over too soon") that has only gotten one vote.

As the game maintainer, I would be the one to approach the game designer and publisher about a variant such as this. However my priority at the moment is fixing the remaining significant bugs before considering additional variants. It would be good for interested people to upvote the but mentioned above related to higher points for the end of game.

I’ll support the longer game version. If the You Win card becomes too powerful, add it to the exclusion option.

I love the idea of changing the point total higher for longer games. I do think disabling the "you win" card would be important.

Not sure if it's been mentioned yet but I think a long version could just be an option to not ha e the colony cards. Let the stations play out as to build up the various functions and tricks they offer.
