Also, in mods with leaky armor, such as the B5 mod, the Aux Con can significantly improve the combat worthiness of your ship.

Instead of one lucky shot taking out half your movement while your ship still has 90% of its hitpoints, you now have a backup.

Yes - the same sort of consideration takes place in Proportions, with ships that have armored structure. They can take a pounding and still be mostly functional, usually, but one lucky hit can take out the bridge. With Aux Con, it would require two lucky hits. On a major expensive combat ship, Aux Con may be worthwhile.
