Gamma laser torch propulsion

The Kzinti Lesson definitely applies here. Even if weaponising a highly-directional gamma ray laser was not desired (and it probably would be, by some) one would have to be extremely careful about not accidentally hitting anything important with the beam. This might, in turn, restrict the vessel's manoeuvrability as it would be dangerous to accelerate in some directions.
