Default How about Newtonian engines as standard?

With the current engine-speed system (which doesn't make any sense anyway), there is one major flaw with small ships. Since you will be spending the same amount of cash and space for the same speed regardless of the hull size, the bigger the ship the better bang-per-buck value you will invariably get. I'm pretty sure that this has been mentioned many times before but I'm rather surprised that it is not made standard for the stock unmodded game. I know there are mods out there that uses Newtonian movements, but there are people like me that are too lazy to install mod after mod. That makes finding PBW partners for your Ideal-Mod games harder.
