Moving unneeded traffic out of NPC cities would do wonders for reducing lag....Seems incentive enough

I'd hazzard a guess that the reason is actually a technical one. The problem being that Starports are single locations. Therefore if the city dies or demotes the ships would just vanish. Banks (the only storage related item in a city) OTOH are planet wide so it doesn't matter if the city loses it's bank.
Techincal considerations can be overcome if the motivation is right. I think there is a lack of motivation on this issue because the devs probably feel it would be counterproductive for the game to move more traffic out of the NPC cities.
