How has this not yet been transposed into a Sinbad in Space story?

I don’t think so… the story is not as familiar on the west, and the setup is mediocre anti-heroic. Sinbad is a profit-seeking trader, usually a villain type in western space opera.

Not even close!... Firefly is thinly veiled antebellum south nostalgia where crew is post-war political subversives first and traders second. The pilot opening even shows the crew coming together in the war. Sinbad was pure trader in the empire of haroun al rashid.
