Other than the usual pain-in-the-ass god-I-hate-it problems of CE, I was wondering what the *particular* disadvantage of CE is to the PP prt.

Is it *just* that you can't travel in the belly of the W8 and W10 packets? Or am I missing something blindingly obvious?

Well, CE doesn't have a particular *advantage* for PP either ... You'd think you could use packets instead of freighters so the CE won't hurt in mineral distribution ... but freighters are just cheaper than packets that it is not worth it IMHO. If you want to use packets for minerals you have to pay the initial cost for the mass driver (target+destination), the extra cost of resources+minerals for each packet, ... freighters have a one time only cost ... and you can change course along the way ... besides you need them for you cols anyway ...
