Because a speedboat is so much slower than a oil transport ship of 200 thousand tons...


Uhm we're talking about space, not water.



BATTLESHIP.... CRUISER, Battlecruiser... aa yeah.. no correlation at all.

For a lot of reasons, You just decide to ignore those reasons. Its to increase the tactical relevance of preemptive positioning of larger ships, and make fast deployment a nearly exclusive capability of smaller ships.

Just because you do not participate in the MAIN PART OF THE GAME, PVP does nto mean there is not a reason.

PVP balance should always come before PVE balance (because only PVE people fly only in battleships around all the time).

Actually I've read somewhere that at one point (maybe this is still true, I don't know) larger naval ships can go faster than smaller ones because their greater mass allows them to cut through water better.

I thought PvE people only flew Ravens with minimum skills or badlly fitted Tengus

You're of course disregarding that we could have it both ways.
We could have battleships warp almost as they did before and preserve both of these things.
I mean come on, it's not like battleships were fast to get around in to begin with.
