The main thing is all the fun trolling aside, the volume is not the ships literal volume. It is the effective volume it takes in a haulers cargo hold. Therefore maths on the capsule is irrelevant.

This actually fits my theory that 1000m3 is the space required to anchor a pod inside a ship, including the necessary equipments to connect up to the ship’s systems.

CCP keeps making spin-off games, yet they refuse to make the most obvious spin-off : Eve Underwater. Rorquals would be the same as they are now, more or less.
