Harpys steal Fighters as they're one of the most common pod ship classes in the game.
Over time, they're actually enough to get a semi-decent attack/defence fighter class put together. If Gryphons were switched to target De and Phoenixes Co again, firstly the Beetle would have to switch to target Co (making the Cathaar far more reliant on the Tarantula to defend) and secondly the De fleet would be a lot less effective when stealing the Lancer - which currently opens up much more powerful attack routes.

Yes, this is why the damage of the beetle and thief are comparitively lower, due to being 0 loss. It's also why probably the second most common (non pod) Co ship used for attacking (the sentinal) suddenly turns those defences into losses, so while the Cr starts being the primary pod fleet, stolen Co can make the Co pod fleet more viable.
