Ah! What if I pull the habitat section that consists of cabins back from Forward Core to Midships Core, and then instead of de-rating a power plant I put in a half-size one and a half-size habitat section? That'll give an extra 10 cabins (a great improvement in comfort) at the cost of reducing the endurance of the power-plant from 400 years to 200 years, either of which is grossly superadequate. Then it's a matter of assigning the non-Core cabins to someone who will almost certainly not be in s/his cabin while the ship is fighting. And I won't have to do a fussy split of the Control Room.
