I tend to agree with you - Starport type indicates quality of service,
world population and other indicators of high/low volume indicate size.

The standard world generation rules for CT, MT, and TNE (they're all the
same for the basic UWP, so far as I recall) all roll the starport first.
The only other characteristic it modifies is TL, which it has a huge
impact on, so the other thing a high quality starport indicates is that
the world is likely to have a good TL. Chicken vs egg is of course for
the referee to decide.
