Yes, ram is definetly better then the default of run away and sit in the corner till boarded.

You are aware I am sure that setting your colony ship to ram is not a fool proof method of avoiding capture. It only works if your ship gets to hit him before he Boards you. With ships of roughly equal speed this will happen approximatly half the time. Less often if your enemy has a speed advantage. So technically it will "at least" make no difference. With luck it will keep the tech out of their hands though. At best your ship might even manage to survive, though heavily damaged.
