I think the cargo loader would fall under the security component. You put cargo bays in, then put internal defenses in...this works out. As a side note, I assume that one armed marine could ventilate the loader before it even gets close enough to use its claws.
I like the idea of the auxiliary control, though! An inherent defense value for it would be GREAT. Other than that, has ANYONE ever found a use for these things?
