[QUOTE]Originally posted by Reverend: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Masao: [qb] In the aviation world, attractive aircraft generally perform better than ugly aircraft. And from an evolutionary point of view, attractive people have a wider choice of potential mates, so could mate for greater intelligence! [/qb][/QUOTE]Well you know full well that only applies to free range starships. Vessels that are built in captivity will bonk anything, as many a confused and somewhat distressed drydock structure has discovered. As far as Aviation precedents go, what if it was something like the [URL=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avro_arrow]Avro CF-105 "Arrow"[/URL]. Looked cool (for the time), apparantly performed great but got shitcanned for mostly political reasons. I live close to Boscombe Down that, back in the day had a bunch of Arrows that the RAF were flight testing. To this day the old pilots rave about the thing, they loved it. Not sure if it says so on wikipedia but the rumour at the time was that the yanks found a way to sink it so we'd buy their plane instead, or something to that effect. So perhaps this thing was UESN's last gasp before Starfleet really took over starship design and kicked out the old guard? [/QB][/QUOTE]
