I have not seen TNE rules YET. When I ref a CT/MT game all of the
starships have triple redundancy (three of every critical components). That
means they can have system failures without possible leaving the party in an
irrecoverable position. Sometime the backup system might not be 100% so the
system might have to be 'tweaked' or 'babied' until they can repair the primary
system that has failed. This way I can keep my players busy without possible
endangering the game itself.
