How about not getting so mad about "not being able to use your special equipment"? You're still very much able to use everything, only with a reasonable nerf. If it's not for the roleplaying aspect of these ships, it must be for the PvP bonus you would gain while flying it, because why else would you be so bothered about it?
You also claimed the Jaguar was a bad ship. I've been flying the Jaguar Noir (which only seems to have reduced armor), and except for the in my opinion crappy placement of the torpedo slots, it handles exactly like a bomber should handle, if not better than that. Yes, it tends to get shot down easily by fighters and gunboats, but gunboats and fighters are supposed to do that to bombers. It just seems like an excuse to get your other toys in play.
