If I were to seriously respond rather than meme, I would say this. For what little you gain getting on Brig you lose more than what you gain from a Sloop.
First, you lose speed of actions when it comes to ship management. You lift Anchor slower, adjust sails slower, and wheel turns slower when compared to a Sloop. Since these are slower, you now have a smaller margin of error when it comes to sinking.
An anchoring is much more deadly if you get caught. Along with that, any of the Ship Damage 2.0 attacks are deadlier as well. It takes longer to repair those now.
The environment also scales, so while most could solo those events, that doesn't change the fact that its harder to deal with when you tack on fighting real players. If the attacking ship is competent, probably plan to sink because you now have to deal with scaling ship damage 2.0 on top of dealing with extra damage from the environment.
Some arguments I hear from the animals that are pro-solo Brig are its faster and bails easier. While the first may be true, it takes longer for you to actually use that speed. By the time you adjust your sails, that pursing ship has already been sailing on max wind for longer than you. Just like any other ship, you are only fastest in one type of wind. If your dealing with any other ship, even another Brig, they can have sails adjusted so much faster than you. The comment on bailing remains untrue. One can only bucket as fast as the animation allows. One can obtain the same bailing speed on both ships. So it doesn't bail faster.
Just stick with the near indestructible Sloop.
