Thank you, that describes my view on the claim very well. My guess is he's confused by the FAQ entry that says something like: if during the game you lose an upgrade that allowed you to equip another upgrade (e.g. B-Wing/E2 is discarded by Boba Fett (Crew)), those extra upgrades are not lost with it.

But this does not apply to building your fleet -- your ships have to be legit at the time you bring them to the table.
