Lore
The Federation conducted a seventeen-system audit of inter-system transit costs and concluded that empty ships traveling back to their pilots represented the single largest preventable expense in small-fleet logistics. The Waystation-class was the solution: twelve bay slots, enough cargo for a working run, and zero weapon mounts because the credits saved on armament were better spent on bay reinforcement. A Waystation pays for itself in approximately fourteen return trips avoided. The Federation has calculated this precisely. They mention the calculation often.
