I like how you think!

And perhaps the computers have instructions for emergency maintenance?  I just saw thet 1% idea also and that is quite good. Perhaps in combination a ruler class could be trained that maintains the ship at least at a basic level. I would also think on a ship this size that there would be mysteries and also weapons and other tech found that would perform miracles and also be quite good for local wars.
