Is there any rule whatsoever to determine the size or structure ratings of the subships? Or do I have to resort to the good, old-fashioned human judgement ?
There are no rules on the size of seperable components of a starship. Whether you're adding a standard or emergency seperation system or the MAM system, the abstract nature of starship combat makes the need for determining the size rating of the various components irrelevant.
You can obvisouly extrapolate the physical dimensions of your seperated section for RP purposes, but you need no other information for gameplay (just assume that the section has all of the components of the main vessel, unless specifically noted (like impulse/warp drives and weapon placements).
