What's yalls least favorite ship of each size?

I really gotta disagree with your assessment of the Pelta here. You're looking at it entirely as a combat ship, which it very clearly isn't meant to be. None of the other FC ships you listed are comparable. Cymoon/Chimaera is such a large percentage of your fleet points that whatever it picks is primarily meant to benefit itself, rather than the fleet as a whole (but the Rebels can't even take an ISD so its a pointless comparison anyways). Liberator only allows a one-shot command, which is fine for Entrapment Formation or maybe AFFM, but the rest want to be powered up more than once to really be worth the investment, and you have to pass up Jaina's Light for Liberator. And nobody uses Flag Bridge, eating your OR and Modification slots and only on a medium/large that's also your flagship is too many hoops to jump through for a one-shot fleet command. Squadron 3, alongside an OR slot and access to FCT and AFFM makes it the single best small carrier in the game (now that Yavaris is nerfed), Engineering 4 (again, highest value for a small) makes it a great recipient for Projection Experts with STTM, being able to feed 2 shields to another ship and buy back its own. The Pelta's a force multiplier that's able to make your whole fleet better, it doesn't have to punch above its weight like an MC30 or zip around the board like a CR90 to be good.

To a lesser degree, I also disagree with your assessment of the Liberty. It definitely doesn't brawl with other large ships well, but it still has its uses outside just dropping it with Raddus. I've had pretty good success with it as a crit engine, with Garm Bel Iblis passing out tokens for upgrades and a Pelta repairing its shields (I recently found out a somewhat similar fleet won GenCon last year). Its also the cheapest Large ship in the game, tied with the Onager Testbed.

I'd also put the Interdictor as my least favorite Medium, but moreso for its cost (90-93 points is close to Large costing, and that's not including its unique upgrades) than its lower firepower, and the Combat Refit is arguably the single worst ship in the game.
