Interesting post There have been fully integrated systems around for some while (for large yachts) however in my experience the crew are not always keen to have fully integrated systems onboard -often with good reason. Is it good practice to have the engine control on the same bus as the AV system? If there was a failure the whole system could be lost fault finding and repair would take specialist knowledge.
Some owners could tolerate loss of engines - but no TV that is serious!
The final part of your post also is very relevant In recent years I have found we are having to also have onboard an `IT guy´ along with the regular engineers.
