Not really. It just increases the amount of automation required. (And
probably ignoring vehicles generally non-nonsensical maintenance

setting where the ships were huge (~200,000 traveller dtons), but the
crews were small -- typical commercial freight only ships were six or
eight, and could be run, if only for short periods, by just one.
Reasonably hard science -- ftl, but no artificial gravity, or
reactionless thrusters (though the reaction drives were probably a bit
too efficient
Another example would be the ships in the Alien series, especially
_Nostromo_ - vastly bigger than we consider "normal" for the size of
crew, and clearly with an awful lot of automation in the background.
