Shuttles as Devices

I know it seem silly but thinking back to the scorpion fighter that could be deployed in the device slot and the talk about the new revamped Toron today and looking up the carrier thread in Fed Shipyards got me to thinking.

Why not have a device version of Type 8 Shuttle and KDF counterpart (thought it was Toron before today)? As device, you can only launch and control one group of 3 at any given time and restricted to Type 8/Toron so the hanger bay still deploy more and has more options. The shuttle device would be nonconsumable, slighter longer cooldown than the hangar bay and is unique so you can't fill up the device slots with multiple copies.
So it doesn't add anything great but is nice to have. Who knows? It would be nice for the noncarrier ships to actually be able to deploy their support crafts in combat without needing a Boarding Party ability.
