I admit this may be a noobish question, but: Is there a specific reason for the drastic change in starting credits and credits rewarded for SP campaign missions in 2.0?

Certainly the prices of vanilla ships and weapons and ordinance becomes completely trivial,…

Ok, so granting that's the case, would it make sense to scale the cost of vanilla equipment accordingly, so that at least there's still some sense of accomplishment with obtaining equipment while playing through the vanilla campaigns?

Shouldn't it cost closer to $170,000 in tha…
