This is just a idea but picture this:
If I have an Anaconda and I want it to be Miner-focused, then I should get all the required parts and change the hardpoint, probably add additional cargo racks, etc and that takes time to set up. Ok, now I just got bored from mining I want to switch my Anaconda into a more exploring-focused vessel while keeping all my current parts at the storage, get all the required parts for exploring, set up and configure in the end a lot of minutes were wasted.
ED can provide some of "saved-layout" or "saved-profiles per ship" so we can switch ship roles in seconds, the profile can be the entire ship layout or just hardpoint setup
