Spacecrafts are and will be build according to technical merit, not according to whatever some political group want their shape to be like. If that shape proves itself better for some reason, it will be used, otherwise not. End of story. I hope we never lose the basic principles of engineering over some wannabe activism.

That's a very nicely designed craft. It's shape brings to mind the Anvil Aerospace C8X Pisces from Star Citizen.

Also, Aqua Teen Hunger Force's "Dickesode" had something to say on the shape of things to come! - https://vimeo.com/684452271

But does it identify as a spaceship? And will it be made of transparent aluminium, or be a 'spaceship of color'? [sic]

I believe "spacecraft" is the preferred neutral term these days.
