Starfleet Shipyards: Thoughts on the Dadaelus Class

Back when they were first creating Star Trek in the 1960s they concieved of the Starship Enterprise, they were going with a Spherical Ship design, but they went with a Saucer Section instead... and Star Trek became Star Trek.
But what if? So here is a slight mod of the Daedalus Class. Now a significant portion of the ship sphere becomes a 'drop colony'. Once the Science/Medical Drop Colony is deployed to investigate some long term situation, or serve as the Deployable Medical Facilities for early Federation colonies, the Back-up Secondary Bridge and lower 'Saucer Section' allows the Daedalus Class to return to Earth for a new Mission Package, and not be out of comission during long term operations.
