I feel somewhat vindicated by this Fallout 4 exploit to get fusion cores — my power armor is better designed:

“You don’t have to become their enemy to do this – just get your pickpocket perk up to 3 then keep your eyes peeled for suited’n’booted Brotherhood troops. Sneak up on them and you can steal the Fusion Core right out of the back of the suit. One hell of a design flaw if you ask me, especially as this then prompts the soldier to pop out of his now semi-non-functional suit and leave it right there, so you can then rob limb, torso and helmet armour upgrades from it. Or even the whole suit, if you’ve not bought one yet. If you’re enemies with the Brotherhood, this is also a powerfully effective strategy – sneak up, take the core and make them hatch out of their protective shell before you start fighting.”
