Why limit the Clipper's speed to below 1,000 and not 1,100 to 1,200? This ship should be fast, based on its name and the number of engines.

This is really a question for Rich from the vehicle experience team, who wasn't able to make it at the last minute. We know his answer was balance: it's where it's supposed to be, in line with it being a generalist and not a specific speed demon kind of thing.

Again, it's Drake. There are a lot of engines. They may not be the best engines in the world, but there are a lot of them to make up for it.

Just because they're big doesn't mean they're powerful.

No, exactly. Very inefficient.
