@D13 re: mass-based detection of cloaked ships: Can't argue with most of it (and based on The Last Command, an reasonable estimate for the lower limit for CGT array's detection range is orbital distances of an Earth-like planet), but I'm not sure about this bit:

Unless I'm missing something, this would only work if the ship is made of magnetic materials.
