The entire ooRP-hatred is totally up to the people themselves and I won't give anything about it. It's a roleplay server. Stop acting faction stuff ingame is your outgame toys.

They're only needed for 'lore confirmation' if they want to recognise the RP or not. There's always been things of blackmarket knock offs anyway, it really doesn't harm. It's not like it's at 100% or military-grade of maintenance. [/color]

It should be considered at least a common courtesy to seek permission when you're trying to get your hands on another faction's tech - you've already mentioned how subjective a lot of the details are, which I agree with, but when it comes to any military tech (and in particular Gallia's, considering the centuries Gallia and Sirius have had to diverge in industrial standards) the idea that military-grade ships and weaponry can just be picked up and refurbished by any passing Junker is mind-blowing - assuming you can even consider the wrecks as still being there or being there at all in an iRP sense. You can write your own personal stories however you like - I don't think anyone is contesting that - but when you start incorporating elements of lore, gameplay, or fluff that belong to other factions, it should make at least a little bit of sense to anyone decent to clear the air by asking ooRP first.
Maybe you should take @Arbs' advice and reread my last post. I'm really, really curious to know how you're flat out unable to 'get it', as you say yourself.
It's pretty simple, but let me break it down for you. There is your roleplay and there is other people's roleplay. When the two conflict, people get annoyed. I could have gotten up this morning and written a story about a Kusari BS defecting to Gallia for any number of roleplay reasons - I could throw at least a couple out there off the top of my head. This is all my roleplay - even if it's backed up in-game, it has no actual canon basis (and nor should it), and frankly it shouldn't be worth the paper it's printed on unless at least some effort is put out there to contact [KNF] to greenlight the general idea beforehand. You don't have to anymore (which I think should be changed ), but IMHO it definitely makes you look like an asshole to plow ahead with personal RP that might run in direct contravention to a faction's (official or unofficial) stance on the same thing.
I have literally no idea how you can find the idea of harmonising your RP with the RP of others to be a bad thing, much less something beyond your understanding. It's a simple courtesy, and to be frank people in your position have no idea just how many "I stole this/defected with this/etc etc" bullshit excuses for plots faction leaders get hammered with on a daily basis. There were at least three or four 'stolen Valor' RP attempts floating around concurrently at one point a year or so back. These are the largest warships in the known galaxy, the only battleship/carrier multirole ship in both sectors with a gun that (iRP) is capable of disabling opposing dreadnoughts in one single shot, and these people were expecting me to believe that Valors go missing as if the Grande Maréchale were misplacing her keys. Their RP might have been fine with it, but they sure as hell didn't give a damn if it affected the RP of me or my faction.
Everyone else playing here is not a side character for your personal story. They have their own roleplay to uphold and keep within the boundaries of common sense, and you're doing them a disservice by sidelining it in favour of what you personally think is cool and right.
