Would a warp-capable starship actually need a navigational deflector?

Asked by ragingloli (51981points) August 21st, 2015

As all educated people know, the navigational deflector is a forward facing ship component on starships in Star Trek, that are used to deflect space debris while travelling at warp and impulse velocities.
Would a starship actually need that deflector, or could it just bend the space containing the debris around the ship’s warp bubble?
