The cyberpunk aspect of the book is really glaring of a hey everyone else is doign this so we got to! The worst part about it is 2300AD is typically fairly far off the standard cyberpunk timeline. Secondly part of what makes Cyberpunk work well is that humanity is trapped on Earth and things spin out of control.

I am not saying Earth would be a bad place to adventure in, it is just made that way by this particular supplement. Lester Smith (who I have met and is a nice guy, so I am not picking on him), really makes Earth out to be a fairly boring, secure place to be. I think there is plenty of non-combat plots that can be explored on the fronteirs.
