Is 2.0 power optimization actually meta?

Would spaghetti ships work again with the changes to integrity?
Now that it is not calculated before two minutes after taking damage you can take spaghetti like shapes that have right above 0 stability and it will fail only after the battle.
And does capsule chaff works right now?
(placing a fog of capsules over kilometers and if possible have them rotating around a single rotation axis hidden in the middle of the ship to spread the damage)
and could someone try layered rotating capsule chaff?(multiple layers rotating around close centers)
(the only problem I would see is performances problems)
with a set up like that then you could imagine having a long wide and high ship that spends 100% of its power in weapons spread through kilometers of space and have the powergen 65 kilometers away(since you no longer actually care about size because you already gave up on that)
and so have as non damage participating blocs only some rotating rail holders and rails and tons of capsules which are absurdly cheap and very light thus in fact having a ship not more heavy than an advanced armor using ship or possibly lighter.

When a weapon rotates around a ship at an orbit with one weapon range around the centre, it doesn't matter anymore how big or fragile your reactor is. I still miss a shield which defocuses weapon beams and trajectories by 10° to make them miss your glass-cannon 1/2 weapon range further and shields which detonate missiles just to say afterward "hey, we only had 10% your damage as shield power, sorry, but we just aren't going to pay your efforts by wasting OUR precious power on your missile".


Can we not simply demand enough hull blocks for a hollow box as long, half as wide, half as high and thick enough for your reactor-level?

You don'T neccessarily have to build a cube/rectanlge, just put the amount in a nice shape around your magic stick of ultimative power and btw use it to build decks and rooms as you like.
Build a bit (20%) more, so that it will not instantly reduce in efficiency when damaged.

Some peoples like to build real armor or advanced armor around it, especially when we decide hull lets every shot pass which didn't get reduced to 80% original damage first by other blocks.
