BTRC's "VDS" (Vehicle Design System) has some neat rules for trade
offs on volume, mass, price, etc.
Now and then reading them, I get inspired to play with a rule along
the lines of :
"Volume for a component can be changed by up to 25%, with an inverse
10x change in maintenance time (and thus cost) and headaches"

Say you take a 10% reduction, and trim your 10 dton M-drive to 9 tons.
You'd be taking a 100% increase in maintenance time/cost - so the
normal 4 hours a week (or what ever) becomes a full days work, and
there's a lot of less-standard widgets that are smaller and more
expensive that need replaced.

"Yeah, the M-Drive is tight packed. Most of the work on it has to be
done from outside the hull, and I'm talking even routine maintenance,
not just big repairs. "   - flashback to scene of Han and Chewie
working on the Falcon on Hoth, climbing around on the outside of the
hull.
