    They address it in the first movie I think. Sinclair is talking with someone (maybe Delen) and the chat goes

    Person: why Babylon 5?
    Sinclair: Babylon 1-3 were sabotaged during construction, Babylon 4 went missing 24 hours after going online.

      I think the meme is not saying why are there five, it’s saying why did they keep doing the same thing when it failed every time!
