I vaguely recall a badly damaged ship being scuttled by the AI, and other damaged ships making a run for it.
I think ships that are still under construction but very near completion can also be launched and put into fleeing TFs. Thus a port that recons as empty may suddenly have fleeing shipping. The incomplete ships will have some damage.

Mis-read that as "other damaged ships making fun of it."
