Sure there is. Absorbing the fighters would make the ship's MASS greater
than the design MASS.
THAT is much more a violation of KISS than not allowing the ship to
reabsorb the fighters. The ship is "size-x" and though it can hold
fighters
in its wombs, it cannot spontaneously grow more MASS any than you or I
could spontaneously grow 20" biceps.
