Meheheh. Be thou careful for what thou wishest.
Isn't "cruiser" kind of a vague superclass anyway? Or is that 'battlecruiser'...
I don't like the Fed's evolution towards long and thin. I preferred tall and wide - the Galaxy's still my favorite design, although the Sovereign comes damn close.

It looks alright looking down on the dorsal side, but the side view is just a pudgy, ugly little thing.

I was trying to make sense of your rambling,somewhat incoherant post and as I far as I can make out what you are saying is that producers could not afford to show the larger crew.
But the Enterprise-D which was even larger HAD A THOUSAND CREW AND WE DID NOT SEE THEM EITHER.
WE DON'T NEED TO SEE THEM EITHER.
The argument makes no sense.
You are forgetting the aesthetics involved totally,namely a splayed turkey compared to an object of beauty.The ship was going away from the planet and it was not a E-D saucer which was a hideous blueish color.This looked more appealing and,I thought I wanted you,to appreciate it as a better vessal then the Voyager class which was generic looking but your arguments relate to showing the crew which makes no sense as we never saw all the crew in TNG which had a larger crew on a larger ship.
we also did not see all the crew of the Loveboat either.
If you cannot muster a cogent argument then it is best to accept what is stated.
I think you need to a picture on your desktop for it to grow on you.
It was highly compact,and gave a holding to my chest appearance,as it clutched the engines,and secondary hull to it's belly.
You could paste a picture of it from the end of Generations.
It had a very distinct appearance that is why I am in love with it.

What P.W. is trying to say, (i think) is that the whole maquis integration thing wouldn't have played much of a role on a ship as big as the E-D. 60 people have very little impact on the crew make up of a ship with 1000 people on it. As for voyager, it has a crew compliment of 141, so if about 60 died, it would have a big impact on the state of the crew. Likewise, to try to integrate 60 people with a hatred of starfleet into the crew also has more of an impact on the ship. It was one of the early conflicts that Voyager expirenced.
"...to appreciate it as a better vessal then the Voyager class..."
Voyager class? do you watch Star Trek for anything other than the explosions and Seven of Nine's breasts?
"It was highly compact,and gave a holding to my chest appearance,as it clutched the engines,and secondary hull to it's belly."
You should write poetry. I'm pretty sure we all have a grasp of what the Nebula class looks like, seeing as there are at least four threads in this forum's database relating to the specs, design, and even the minute differences between the filming models of the ship.
"If you cannot muster a cogent argument then it is best to accept what is stated."
Because, of course, you are the obviously the expert on this whole subject.
Please, spend five minutes to do a search of this forum's database and read some of the conversations about this design.

He big in nothing, important in good elephant.
Seriously, your love for the Nebula is clouding your mental facilities. Also what's your beef with the Enterprise-D Saucer? Now I understand what you are saying, but the The Powers That Be decided to go with a new design. Deal with it. The show has been over for how many years now?
In any case, I like my wallpaper.
