I went to see Star Trek again on Saturday night with friends who hadn't seen it, and in the post-movie discussion, we found the perfect explanation for Nero's spikey, unsafe ship-of-doom.
After witnessing the destruction of Romulus, Nero pledged himself to the Dark Gods of Chaos to get his revenge. Naturally, they drove him mad, but they also mutated is starship into a scary, spikey death machine. It explains a lot.

Star Trek / WH40K crossover? (silly post)
"This is supposed to be a happy occasion... Let's not bicker and argue about who killed who."

"Nothing of consequence happened today. " -- Diary of King George III, July 4, 1776
"This is not bad; this is a conspiracy to remove happiness from existence. It seeks to wrap its hedgehog hand around the still beating heart of the personification of good and squeeze until it is stilled."
