I'd rather one of our iconic MF wattages than a FC to be perfectly honest ..

I really dont like how most FC's dont bring their slaves along to oly. Some additional options would probably help with that; For example, a stationary firing option. Tell your slaves to sit in one place and shoot at their targets. If they get kicked away, they try to resume their position and keep firing.(This is to resolve the problem of slaves flying in the line of fire of zeus, or outside the circle of drones in Pos)

Another option could be, perhaps, called "wingman"? Where essentially the slave locks itself to the side of your ship, kinda like in that old game galaga?

That would really let you control their position. In olympus you need a huge degree of precision, but slaves just don't allow you to do that. Which is why, I think, they are not often taken along.

Combat slaves don't trigger spawners. Our FCs bring their slaves.

However, hold position and fire would be super useful in many situations.

Eh, It's based on a certain strategy in pos. If you don't know what it is, I'm not going to tell you. The point still stands.

Any FC I dare take on my runs uses slaves. Cefton for example.

But there was a brief period when people stopped bringing slaves because of some shitty ass bug where as you should know Markoz's slaves disappeared and it took weeks to recover them. WEEKS.
