there was one stars! story about a guy who named all his ships things like --.-__-.- so no-one but him would be able to tell them apart. as the game story goes, the other players wiped him out.

I think that Colony hulls exist for the newbies. They might not realize that Transports would work. Otherwise, they might give up learning the game because they would wait until they researched destroyers before they could build any colonizers!
