Multiple FTL units on Galactica?
Why didn't the Battlestar Galactica have more than one FTL unit so that it could jump and rejump without any delay? That would seem very useful in battle to jump in, fight, and leave within minutes. Better yet, jump in, launch missiles, jump out, jump back and keep doing that until the base stars retreat. Obviously, this would spoil the fight sequences, but it does seem like a good idea to have on the larger ships or at least one specially fitted raptor.
