 i'd agree, but it's nice to have the option of having the option of 
 dumping cargo, if you catch my drift.

I wonder what a feather could do to a fighter?

 oh, they will. why would warships have any free space? that would be
 inefficient design. they are packed solid with power plants, drives,
 computers, armaments, crew quarters, etc. look at how much room each
 sailor gets on a current warship (on an rn destroyer, it's basically a
 bunk in a cupboard).

If you look at FB1 (ESU inparticular) they keep talking about how
limited
space is.
