Yes, you are. Any evidence to the contrary is either a typo or an
illusion :-)

Thing is, Mike Elliott (who wrote the FT/DS interface rules in More
Thrust, 
and was more involved in the Fleet Books than I was) says that fighters
are 
smaller than 1 Mass. Last time I saw Jon T. express an opinion on the 
subject, he agreed with Mike (I'm afraid I don't have an on-line
reference 
for this, though). But if you want to bash your head bloody trying to 
resolve a rules inconsistency which the author of half of the
inconsistent 
rule basically has told you to ignore, you're quite welcome to it <g>
