A thought

[Enko]

This would gimp fights so badly in the Fighter/Bomber world. Quite a lot of the light VHFs and especially HFs are vulnerable to getting murdered with just a single MR shot when only a few hull bars down, say 2-3 for agreement sake. Now usually to prevent myself from exploding due to a MR or even stuff like nuke mines, I never go down below a few hull bars, or at least try to avoid it, doing so means I wont explode when I get it by a MR or a nukey. With this I either have a choice in totally wasting one of my few and far apart nanobots, or taking such a huge risk with the fact Im going to get instagibbed anytime soon.
This will cause fights to either dramatically plummet in length when combating with these components, or the alternative to that is to end up going really evasive whenever hull damage is threatened. This also reduces an element of skill in fights, as people that may be careless and go down to half hull are liable to getting instagibbed easily, however with this system it would become a fact that any ship that gets down to 3/4 hull is ready to pop.
