I had never noticed this before, and I've built a load of spaceships, and juggled through the build mechanics a lot.
Additionally, if an Optimised Hangar Bay can have a -3.SM Hangar Door, then there seems to be no reason for a standard Hangar Bay not to have the same sized door. Both can still have whatever SM vessels fit in the bay, it's just the the launch rates which are different!
-3.SM is the actual size of a single Hangar Bay system, so it's just 1 step bigger than listed on Spaceships.p43, and 3+ Bays is effectively an additional +1 to SM, so I think I'm inclined to consider the maximum SM object through a hangar bay door to be an errata, and to just increase them by 1. Doesn't seem to obviously break anything else.
