3) Would there be any good reason to use a non-colonizer hull to build a colonizer?
I've used heavily armored ships to colonize a system that I can only reach by way of a damaging warp point.

7) [...] I have reported a couple of bugs to MM, but I would hate to be bothering them by reporting things already known.
Multiple bug reports give an indication of how high a priority fixing that bug should be. A bug that affects almost every game needs to be addressed sooner than one that only comes up in a handful of specific situations.

A tribute is a forced 'gift' it would be accepted if the alien culture was superior or felt itself superior. A tribute would be acceptable evn if they were pissed at you.

A gift is voluntary and can be seen as a bribe in some instances.
