Also, if I'm reading the information on the wiki correctly, you won't be able to have 2 level 6 nodes right next to each other, so it will be a matter of players deciding whether they want a level 6 Economic node, or a level 6 Scientific node. The value of each node type's superpower will depend on the distribution of resources and node types across the world.
It's entirely possible that it also reaches over the meta region, but it would be weird since the zoi shouldn't expand into the other region otherwise the whole meta region thing is somewhat? pointless.
This would take a lot of meta gaming tho to find out where those borders are since we are certainly not getting told. It's possible to happen by chance but I wouldn't count on that and it would take months to years to test it all out.

If you want to travel from one node to another, the distance is the same no matter how big the zone of influence is. That is my interpretation of what we have been told, but I could be completely wrong of course.
Yes, but the zoi is directed. It doesn't just wildly go off into one direction forever but moves in a bigger meta zone.
Like let's say there are a total of 100 influence zones(aka possible camp placement zones. 20 zones are bunched together into one region and if a node pops up and advances, it's influence will grow in this region of 20 total zones only.
So a node that pops up HAS to fight for <<those>> 20 zones with other nodes in the same region instead of the 20 zones directly around wherever the node popped up.
I think it is to prevent weird/blackhole zoi spreads long term when new nodes pop up/advance/fall and rearrange zois.
I hope I could somewhat explain what I mean, I could do a series of low quality drawings to show it more hands on.
