Most of the halls can't fit anything bigger than a extremely heavy battlesuit anyways, so you'd have to be okay with the machine vs. nature battles going down in the open space of the defense fighter bay. There's enough vents in there for a fair fight anyways.

To me, Sci-Fi isn't about the things we think aren't possible, it is about the things that could be possible.
