I’m almost finished with TFA novel. It has much more dialogue and scenes than the film (as books usually do). Snoke, in a conversation with Ren and Hux, specifically states that one of the major reasons why the Starkiller Base was built was to get the Resistance out from hiding. I don’t have the quote on me, but it does shed light as to why the base was built, and why it had an obvious weak point.
