Does fuel economy always lean towards narrower (less livable) hulls?

Do narrower hulls lean towards less weight carrying capacity?

Is there compromise?

Are all liveaboard cats not already a huge nod towards fuel economy  
over a mono that is capable of getting beyond displacement speed?

If one is spending a ball park of 500k and up, how much of a factor  
is the fuel economy a cat delivers a factor of the final bill?

Leaving aside ethics of fuel consumption, does the owner of a 2  
million dollar custom cat or ,say, a krogen 58, lie awake at night  
worrying about his fuel bill?
