I think the new soft cap with a supply penalty for going over is a step in the right direction (In general I prefer soft to hard caps)
One possible option is that instead of having each ship take up 1 slot, you have each size take up a certain number of slots based on size or maintenance cost. Like a capital ship will take up 2 slots, cruiser 1, destroyer 0.5, frigate 0.25. Likewise, the over-the-limit supply penalty affects the larger ships more than smaller ones.
You could also have hull mods (External Tenders, UNREP Rigs, whatever) that can be added to cap ship or cruisers that provide additional slots for destroyers and frigates.
