that doesn't help. the problem was the length of the ship, not its width. a narrow entry point does not limit the length.

But physics already limit the length of the ship, no? You can't make the current container ships any longer without also making them wider, so if you restrict the width you are also kind of restricting the length, at least with current technology.
