I think if you defect and buy a new faction module the existing one should be lost. I.e. You can only fit one of these on a ship at any given time. Meaning you'll end up with a ship with a specific module.
If ships can have them all PvP will be abandoned until everyone has all the modules. That means most people will grind away solo. They already do that with trading. Fewer and fewer on-line until it's basically only a solo game with some common sharing of data.
Is this what frontier wants?
Edit: I can't see wings forming from different factions, but this will probably happen and may give wings a boost. I think all modules should be available from all factions. Just that you can only equip one.
