On the other hand, it is of little importance, since you can Space Master them out, if necessary...
As stated you can just use SM to do this in two button presses, so I doubt it gets added.
However if you want to control this at the start of the game, you generate 100 officers per academy so changing the number of academies will accomplish this - and frankly I recommend doing this anyways as it is hard-capped to 2 academies and thus does not scale beyond 1b pop. When I do a 2b pop game I usually scale it up to 4 academies and as a side effect I have plenty of officers for the size of fleet I will build.
