This module, as pointed out, is not collision related.

To further clarify:

The vessels are at no point dealing damage from the impact itself, but rather using the opportunity presented by the contact in order to inflict damage caused by the inertial dampeners being reversed.

Inertial what?
Inertial dampeners are what keep the hulls intact, as well as what is inside of them, when traumatic changes in direction occur.

Not even the gel filled pod could protect the pilot inside from being crushed by the sudden forces our ships endure when they change speed and direction as suddenly as ours do.
The inertia, or resistance to change, is negated by inertial dampening fields.
The space inside the ships, from the perspective of the inhabitants, is simply not moving from external causes or changes occurring.

Now, this same stabilizing field, IF overridden by a hostile directive, can have quite the opposite effect.

While the ships themselves outwardly behave the same, the ship's internal structures and hull are yanked violently, using the duplicate system in the attacking ship for this assault.

This is probably one of the more intelligent approaches to this.
+1 because RAMMING SPEED!
