In the end it just depends how realistic you want, like I said at the very end of my post.

If you don't care that much about realism and physics (which, in a space opera game or anything with superscience, clearly isn't a major factor in the first place) then by all means, go for it - as I said before, at the end of the day if you and your table like it and it makes the game better, then full steam ahead. :)

It just doesn't make a lot of sense from a physics perspective, so folks who are trying to steer closer to hard science will probably want to avoid things like that.
