In favour of this because a lot of the time I've seen jailbird and stowaway used, I've never seen them result in anything particularly interesting.
Stowaways frequently just get treated as regular crew members, which is only exasperated by the fact they aren't forced into randomnaming, and the fact crew members generally don't have a full idea of who is and isn't on the manifest.
Minor jailbird crimes rarely get prosecuted or even interacted with at all because they're "off-station offenses" (and some of them aren't even actual crimes), and major charges also get glossed over a whole lot, presumably because security doesn't particularly want to treat the jailbird with a "spaced the captain" charge as someone who actually spaced the captain, so security just takes any jailbirds off of arrest with at most a ticketing.
