Actually, -hyperspace makes the physics more consistent. Enemy ships have always been able to go off the side of the screen and wrap back to the other side. They have also been able to drop off the bottom of the screen and reappear at the top. Hyperspace just extends this to the player's ship, which is more consistent.
Of course, it's not really about consistency, but about the different gameplay that this leads to. -- see shy jo
