The amount of energy it takes to count numbers is pretty small. So if you took half of that energy, you'd have like 20 seconds sitting at a computer.

Trent! Do NOT engage the pirates!
But in the end, the player will still engage the pirates. Why? Because it's just too tempting to try and win, even if you know there is an inevitable loss, no matter how many times you try and kill them all while returning to the tradelane in time.
It is all too predictable, such is human nature.
And also to get that extra couple thousand credits for the bounty that one guy has on him.

I could swear it was part of an administrative role to actually lock such specific flame threads against a faction, even if cloaked in heavy doses of laughter.
I suppose we cannot expect much of the regulars if the helping hands don't do much though.
