I can see your point with this change, something needs to be done to make the FI/CO swarms easier to stop. But I think that changing the ETA in the way you proposed it will make FI/CO fleets even more viable.
As in, take xan as it usually is, building FI/CO attack fleets and FR/DE as anti-CR/BS defense. If this change would be implemented wouldn't it be easier for xans to dominate because they have anti-everything in light ships?
Just think, xans wouldn't even need to research another Hull or build a single medium factory to have anti-CR/BS. In my opinion, this would hurt CR/BS planets even more, while only making attacks a little bit harder to land (keep in mind, xans fake) and render rushing CR/BS after protection almost useless.
To make it balanced, you'd only need to give one race a CR/BS ship to fire at FI/CO, just like cath had a few rounds ago. I'm sure anyone can find some of those in-gal.
