Maybe in the theoretical picture, but in Real Life (tm) we buy our
ships by point value and the same point value ship with better officer
and crew ratings is not the same point value ship.

IMNSHO if you want better crew values they should cost more points
(extra training costs) in proportion to how much better they are
and how large the ship is, this should definately be in force in
a campaign game.
