I ALWAYS crank my repair aptitude down to 50% at game start up anyway...those points are really nice.  Baseships are really the only ship where you can load up on EP and still have a decent attack/defense ship.  If you want to limit the number of EP per ship, I would recommend just limiting the number on baseships only.  Even then, I don't think there should be a limit.  
A fully loaded baseship takes a fair amount of time to build.  I would rather crank out three or four dreadnaughts or battleships in the time it takes to build one baseship.  So what if someone can move through several systems, I will have plenty of fire power there to make him wish he had just stayed home.  I would rather have a fleet of battle ships or dreadnaughts than a single baseship, especially in tactical combat.
