...but you have to send a ship to go and look, rather than your next
scheduled run being there anyway. It's a trade-off - I certainly
wouldn't expect really high-value cargoes to be transported in this way,
and military ships would probably not set their final rendezvous point
until after departure, but in peacetime it does make a certain amount of
sense.
