At least there is a physical solution to shipboard stowage, and a wing stow mod could feasibly be integrated.
Not so with Defiant. The mast height is non-starter for fitting in any deck elevators or doors. And since that total airframe height is the entire MGB and integral hub, there is no way to address that problem.
