How do you prevent an NPC ship from picking up illegal wares?

Seriously, I'm losing my mind. I've lost 3 XL traders now because they just happen to pick up spacefly eggs during their trade routes and police are police. How the heck do I keep them from grabbing this crap?

You can tell their Drones to ignore Illegal Cargo they stumble upon...

You can also just ORder your Assets to comply with Orders Given by Police, in most cases they just demand that you (your Ships) jettison the Illegal Goods, you get a tiny Reputation penalty and thats all about it...

I've told it to ignore the contraband crates and destroy them and they're still picking them up. Even my Mammoth Sentinel that's just... sitting next to my PHQ not moving.
