I notice some people like to use privateers to colonize early game..is there really an advantage to that? i mean once the colony ships are used you can always makea new design like that later in the game if you wanted a transport/colonizer hybrid to save design slots.

I'm confused as to what the advantage is. I just use boosters with teh colony ships...is that better or worse overall?

and i know the privateer also deposits more minerals when it colonizes..but it seems more effective to just transport some minerals there than waste the excess resources. (unless of course you're trying to save G, but the posts i was reading were about -f races)
