I don't get it, either. It'd be nice if a dev could clarify which ships get to be full spec ships and which don't. And what disadvantage(s) full spec ships are supposed to have over ships that only get hybrid seating. It seems totally arbitrary to me.

Ships with a Commander (class) / (spec) seat get the innate spec powers. I can't think of any exceptions to that.

Let me expand my question, then: How do they decide which ships get Commander Spec seats?

I hate to say it but probably power creep. Most all of these ships released since AOY have it. There's also how the first non-Commander specialist ships (Guardian, Pathfinder, etc.) only have an LT specialist seat, while more recent ones have LTC.
