Gameplay cannot reflect lore perfectly.
I have been told this time and time again by the Dev team. We aren't going to pretend that a Transport is a battleship. We won't even be able to move the damn thing in an asteroid field. The Neph replacement has a big "Get stuck on asteroids" thing in the middle.

Things a transport also is not: a colony ship.

And it's a battleship. It doesn't suffer too much from not being able to move in a fight. The transport on the other hand needs to be able to run from pirates.

One word rebuttal.
Cities.
I got halfway through this reply to this frankly retarded "rebuttal" before I looked back at your first post and saw this:

After I've already argued with you before.
So obviously you're not reading.
So I won't waste my time.
You're a petulant child that's screaming because his old toy's been taken for various reasons, before he even sees exactly what the new one looks like.
And I have better things to do.

So first it needs to be able to fight, now it needs to be able to run? You can't have both
