That's a good site, but I don't like the fact that he sets definite
masses for different classifications of spacecraft. We really have no
idea as to how large space vehicles in real life would be.

I totally agree with his assessment of future space combat. However,
in the Lego world, making carriers is far less difficult than building
ships with many huge weapons, since Lego parts are quite expensive.
In my little imaginary Lego world, battles are largely fought by huge
vehicles with dozens of large weapons. However, it is simply not
economically feasible for most people to build ships in this manner.
