Small ship Small Containers are outclassed in both metrics by both Medium and Large Containers, and they are limited in what they can store (they use small conveyors only); their sole, and niche, use is that they can fit into tiny spots on a ship where a better container could not.

This means that Large Cargo Containers are weight efficient, while Medium and (large grid) Small Containers are space efficient. Small ship Small Containers are outclassed in both metrics by both Medium and Large Containers, and they are limited in what they can store (they use small conveyors only); their sole, and niche, use is that they can fit into tiny spots on a ship where a better container could not. If you want better maneuvering and/or fuel efficiency, think Large; if you want smaller constructions, think (large grid) Small or (small grid) Medium.
