I've heard of feature creep..

But, you know, it usually creeps *forwards*

What am I complaining about?

"Launched from Ship:
This unit can be launched into space by a ship. Only applies to units that can
actually be launched.

Launched from Planet:
This unit can be launched into space from a planet. Only applies to units that can
actually be launched."

That. Those two lines from vehiclesize.txt work in SE4 standard, but were removed from the units (abet not the file- only in the comments section). They no longer work. Can't make non-planet launchable drones now, for example.

EDIT: I found a bug, as well.

Normall, you can't mount more than one Auxilary Control or Bridge component. However, if you have a Master Computer, you can. You can have 10 bridges and 10000000 aux controls if you like. Not a huge deal for normal play, and it doesn't make SE4 crash, but I was relying on that exclusion for parts of my mod

My guess is these were added as part of some other requested addition that was done. One of those "unintended consequences" and all. Off the top of my head I can't figure our what that might be though.

Maybe one of the modders that is part of the beta team will know something. Also you could try emailing malfador and asking them why that was done. If it was a mistake and removing them had no purpose, maybe they can put them back in in a patch.
