Actually, it will keep them moving at half speed instead of 1/16th speed.

Since it has zero hitpoints it will also be hit Last.

You mean in the event the MC is destroyed? Good point. There is a way to prevent the humans from using the Jeffries tubes and sub processors, but there is no way to keep the AI from using them without them wasting space on Life Support and Crew quarters. So we give the Sub Proc and Jeffries tubes a small structure, say 10Kt. That will keep them from Lasting till the end of combat. And the One Per vehicle restriction will keep the human player from putting hundreds of them on the ship to use as no space internal armor.
