we look mostly on what ships are supposed to be like ( visible part ) - while the hitboxers try to make the box as fitting as possible.
again - we look at the SHIP for the most part - and only at the hitbox when the hitbox is greatly inaccurate. - the mako itself was tested and balanced with the SHIP ( the thing we see ) and not the hitbox in mind.
anyway - whats done will be done. - if it really turns out that the fitting hitbox is too good, - it will be balanced.
mind, "balanced" goes both ways. - and "balance" is also objective and non biased ( in its best state ) - so.... we will try to balance the mako one way or another.
