The trope of flying through the debris/explosion of the ship you just blew up is kind of ridiculous. That's the last place you want to go.

Finding micrometeorite holes would actually be harder than you would think because it's only 1 atmosphere pressure leaking (or less, you don't have to have 1 atm to exist comfortably). Might be easier to find them from the outside first and then map out where to look.

Those battle scenes where the rail gun shot were visibly going through and just missing...that was frightening. And remember, any shot that misses ruins someone else's day later on.
