My GOD. What an incredibly stupid design . One man, who did not know the true extent of a causality, could shut the reactor down, limiting propulsion, electricity, manuverabilty. I can think of a dozon causualties off hand were shutting down a reactor would take it from the managable to possible, if not certain, Loss of Ship.
