Balance of major vs minor production

A few times now I've wondered if minor powers add too much industry.

This is particularly noticeable with Romania, which gives a huge increase to Russian production. But also I've noticed it with Belgium, and Spain, and the Greek convoy

Now I know why!

Majors have an Industry Modifier applied to their raw industry rating. For Russia it's a mere 25% - which makes perfect sense for balancing - BUT it means that a resource in Romania is worth 4x as much as one in Russia. Which results in some weird effects.

Maybe the way this works could be looked at? In a sense there's a 'solution' of reducing resources in minors, but that's a bit clunky...
