I guess if you force bases it wouldn't be that bad, but I'm just
thinking
my current campaign.

I'm bringing in 6 fighter squadrons on 2 CVL's and a BDN, I also have
a missile cruiser (10 SMR).  I don't know what my opponent has but
I know he outpoints me by about 30%.  If I had FTL fighters I would be
adding 12 squadrons to the mix from the two jump-point connected worlds.
It makes carriers rather superfluous.

That would be a major difference and I would probably trounce him as
he has very little in the way of fixed defenses that connect to the
contested world for fighters of his own.
