For basically every other hull, I can understand the rationale behind its name. There are a bunch of RL warship classes, and the rest are mostly straight descriptions of what the hull does. Nubian, I'm stumped. Does anyone know?

I asked Jeff McBride, and he said "They are called Nubians because Newbies would think they were all good with no downside. Really. Truly."


Well aren't they?
There's a reason or two that the Nubian hull pretty much dominates the late game era.
What are the downsides supposed to be?
