Hmmm... it seems I'm the only person in the fandom who actually liked Kes. *g*
No, seriously! I was outraged when they replaced her with the Big Boobs of Doom!
But you're right. The Ocmpa weren't thought out properly. In my "Alternate Caretaker" story I tried to right the living-only-nine-years problem by assuming that it was a result of the Caretaker screwing up their planet completely.
As how they got anything done, perhaps telekinesis was a main factor in it, before they declined to the state they were in at the beginning of the series.
