My thinking with the small house transports was along the way that they would be sold rather freely to Freelancers and the likes and smaller corporations (represented by Freelancer IDs ingame). Thereby those small transports would be available widely and their repair materials would also be rather easy to get, so the nerf of the power core isn't really fitting anymore. ooRPly it would be to give the Freelancers more variety when they wish to choose which transport fits them best. One might play a Rheinland Freelancer, the other a Bretonian Freelancer, the next a Borderworld guy. A 90% nerf might not be that much, but it's still "yet another reason not to buy small house transports". And be honest, who besides Freelancers or other limited IDs really flies them for trading?
The Firefly - I thought we had a replacement for it already. Guess I was wrong. Well, seeing that ship being dropped (completly!?) gives the limited IDs even less ships to choose from, making my suggestion more interesting in my opionion.
NPC "piracy" - well, the increased size of the Gull's cargo hold should make that ship a viable option as well. Also the freighters might be more of an option with bigger holds, maybe? Nanga Parbat and Bumblebee can stay as they are, they are just never (or VERY rarely) used by players. Fine with me. Main issue is giving more ships to choose from between 3k and 3.6k cargo space.
EDIT: I really wish to point out the Gull and Albatross changes, they'd be at least a start towards more ships in that range. Especially since they are vanilla ships which were used A LOT in vanilla and which are Sirian civilian.
