I can't begin to comprehend how you could believe such a thing as a valid excuse. Multiple profiles for a Cd-Key do not allow players to transcend time and/or space (and to bring their internet connections with them). I think even an EA rep threw that nonsense out as some sort of excuse.
Only one CD-Key authenticated game can connect to the internet at any given time. That is no more than one concurrent user. The only situation where this could allow for an imagined explosion of content is if other users where running Spore on another machine off-line and uploading once they connected, one at a time. Otherwise, each CD-key is only going to generate content at the rate of any single continuous user.
Also, the creature files are tiny so storage is a non-issue.
