I forget, don't WPs contribute to the "in space" unit limit?
No. Units that are in cargo never count towards the limit. That means carriers with full loads of fighters, mines waiting for a threat to show up before being deployed, drones still in a carrier, etc. don't count either. I think this would make fighters actually viable in the late game, because a heavy carrier with a full load of fighters is more powerful per ship than anything else. Sure, it costs a ridiculous amount of resources to build all the fighters to go in it, but with such large empires and such a low ship limit that's not what matters in the late game.
