Idea for liners

[Bubba2x4]

It is currently illegal to carry people in you cargo bay if you fly a NON-liner ship.

But what if, instead of (or in addition to?) it being illegal, human cargo would take up more than one cargo space per unit if carried in a non liner ship?

Meaning that If I head over to planet Manhattan, and load up on spaceship crews, I'll be able to carry many more per unit cargo space in a liner than in a non-liner ship.

After all, if you have a ship that's "specifically designed to transport people", you'll be able to shed all of that big, bulky, space-suit, eject-pod, and life-support equipment, making much more room for your actual payload. An ill-equipped ship could still carry human cargo, but not nearly as efficiently as a purpose built one, like a liner.

Just an idea.
