you know.... I wouldn't put it past starfleet to think that was a good idea.

I mean, they don't use surge protectors, they don't use seatbelts, they don't have handrailing. They don't secure their cargos. and there are those times where the gravity gets conked out. (also I'm pretty sure that the gravity field that extends past the hull would attract all sorts of nasties, and some neutronium getting blasted off would be enough to vaporize the ship. even just a few grams.)

Clearly the gravity capacitors are aligned in such a way that in the case of gravity failure, the outer gravitronic shell fails first, causing the neutronium to evacuate safely in the direction of anyone else, while the inner shell maintains for a second or so longer, preventing an implosion.

That, and transporter shenanigans. They just beam up the neutronium before shutdown.
