Because I was always thinking that spaceships are built on lighter weight hulls than planetary-based vehicles, especially when they are wheeled or tracked.
For that, you just need to use the armor density rules from one of the Pyramid articles. When dealing with heavily armored vehicles, general SM does not equal Spaceships SM. Since the Spaceships system is built heavily mass, you should subtract SM rather than add weight.
