Extremely strange indeed. The loot is always a Saber component that you don't have, and its automatic. Before the scene cuts to Med Bay, the message box appears which lists the component.
Are you absolutely certain no box appears after the fight/dialogue?

Actually that could be. I'm playing from my hdd, so it loads pretty fast and sometimes I can hear the sound from message boxes popping up, but before I can read it the game loads the next scene straight away, guess that's the timing issue Akari was talking about in the technical forum.
So yeah then it's highly likely that I got a saber component. I'll check it out on my next playthrough. Thanks...
