Is there a team/teams whose only focus is updating old ships? Why not? These are things that were paid (real money) for. Is it too much for a small team to be dedicated to trying to bring older ships in line? Even just a 2-4 person strike team. Even if it took them a long time. At least players would know that someone was investing time into keeping their $45+ purchases relevant. They could always have to wait for approval and oversight. They could have a huge backlog or only get through one shop a year, but even that would be better than where we are now.
