Hear, hear! I don't see any other way to get humongous, heavily shielded ships into space at a bargain basement price. And you need both size and heavy shielding if you want your crews to be both safe and relatively comfortable.

Well, you could have the propulsion system a mile or so ahead of you (or behind you). That would make the radiation tolerable.
