Too expensive tonnage-wise.  I'd rather fit another battery on there 
and live with the firing arc limits.  I can usually end up pointing in 
the right direction to hit something--even if it is a Corvette, which 
I've wiped out with pulse torps before for lack of better target!  The 
slight lack of flexibility hasn't bit me in the butt yet, and as you 
may know, I've got a fleet list already put together.  As long as I 
don't suffer regular crushing defeats, I try to stick to it.  If I 
start getting beaten regularly due to a weakness in the designs, the 
Imperial Navy will rethink it's design strategy.
