I've never really had an actual problem with this in a game, so if we
want
to leave things as is, I'd be fine with that. The only place where you
might run into "abuse" is with a gaggle of Thrust 6 or 8+ ships.

However, if we just say that the "thruster push" is simply an extension
of
a more efficient drive...

It keeps things simple and makes it so no one has to change anything.
