I still wonder though - Does hyperspace travel break the event horizon? Because the event horizon is the point beyond which even light cannot escape, so if you pass the event horizon and even hyperspacing can't escape, then technically your escape capsule could never reach a safe haven so from a plot point of view it's still "Load New Commander" time even if you're not in Ironman mode.
I suppose it all depends on whether hyperspace is locally faster than light or merely warping spacetime to make a huge distance contract to a manageable one. If it's the latter, you'd need extra computations to distort spacetime such that the event horizon no longer enveloped your ship.
