I feel that way about the Merchantman. They keep claiming they need more time because they keep redesigning it yet they can secretly develop the hammerhead and it's almost done.
I submitted a bug report on that forever ago. I did notice sometimes if you leave the patcher open a while before launching the game it will randomly check.
Make stolen ships non-transferable, non-insurable and only one fake ID allowed to be assigned per stolen ship and only one fake ID stolen ship allowed per character at a time.
All the problems solved.
