On principle I would say no, as variety is important. But in reality, I am all for it, as facts proved people simply cannot be trusted not to abuse their privileges. While I don't actually like it, people brought it on themselves, so I want this as well as pure tech (as I said, I hate it...a lot..but people need to learn).

-Everyone's guns are equal which means less requests simply to acquire a superior PvP set up.
Isn't asking for better stuff the whole point of weapon requests ? Why would my Hacker ask for Krakens if Hellflurries were better ? Why would mercenaries ask factions for their weaponry if Flashpoints were better ?

If the tech chart allows so unbalanced set ups, then there is a serious problem with the tech chart. Maybe we should look there in the first place.

Full Kraken+Inferno sabre, no need for tech chart to allow so unbalanced set up. (Not that I care if people use that set up)

I would only add more civilian refire type weapons.
And maybe 2 type weapons per faction. for example : kraken and wyrms that outcasts have...etc.
This, I would add at least one at 4.00 speed civilian, and add more guns for other factions...
To the Topic, I don't wish to see that, the power/efficiency differences are the whole point
