For instance Breaching Pods can hold twice as many souls as a bay with a Lifeboat (and it says the Breaching Pod can act as an escape pod).
Then the Drop Pods can hold twice as much as the Breaching Pod can. While originally, it was implied that all Expansion Bays were the same size, it becomes apparent that isn't really true when you look at the Shuttle Bay and Hangar bays obviously represent a larger space than a small craft's 25 ton expansion bay.
With the Breaching Pod holding twice as much as a set of lifeboats, I'm wondering if it was supposed to have a minimum ship size. Then with the Drop Pod (and Colossal Drop Pod) were those supposed to have minimum ship sizes as well that were larger than small. I wondered if perhaps Colossal Drop boxes were limited to colossal ships, and the limitation was edited out of descriptions as it seemed redundant or obvious by the name. However, I'd argue it is not obvious at all, as it is more likely representing the size of the creatures held by it.
