I meant using small freighters to ship things around, there they are always(yes i take the risk again to say "always") more ineffiecient than MFs or privateers, excluding situations where you want to make others think you are making mistakes, create shielded freighter chaff, create transports with high battle board speed, slow tech games(or worse like Dark Ages), exploit UR for new colonies and take some cargo along, maybe i missed something.

I had testbeds in mind where only purpose of freighters is to carry things around and in such a situation, which is comparable to situation in most early games, with freighters only speed, range, cargo capacity and costs matter and on that MFs are better except range.
