Atlantis city ships and vulnerable power systems

Does Atlantis's role as a lightly armed civilian city ship explain its limited defenses?

Repeated attacks during a major war justify adding weapons and spreading power modules and reserves around the ship.

A viewer proposes that Atlantis is essentially a lightly armed civilian ship. The competing view is that repeated attacks during a major war should have prompted heavier armament, especially on a vessel with so much space. Concentrating three zero-point modules in one room also leaves the power supply vulnerable. The proposed alternative keeps main engineering while placing additional operating modules and reserves at separated locations. This is a suggested redesign of Atlantis.
