OK. FWIW the SV designs shown in FB2 are rather poor compared to what
can 
be built under the SV ship design rules, so if you've only built a few 
designs of your own you might not have experienced just how powerful 
*optimized* SV designs are.

Living, sure, but artificial. There's nothing in either the texts or the
SV 
ship design to stop the Sa'Vasku from creating (growing, breeding, 
whatever) more powerful warships... and given the SV combat rules in
FB2, 
the SV come across as rather stupid when they insist on growing such 
inefficient warship designs when they could do so much better for 
themselves :-/
