Tactics....If a fleet goes out with a couple of good repair pilots to heal the big guns, and you dont counter that by going after these ships with bombers/ gunboats it is going to be a long day for someone.....They have a role to play, and it would be nice to see them be able to be used to repair downed trade lanes...Storage Facilites...POBs...Is not writing macros against the rules? Like setting up your gaming mouse to chainfire your gunboat turrets?....
Repair ships have a use...but they need to be killable.
