I agree with everything but the "toothless" adjective. Threshold  
level 2 is where ships are more likely to have some serious fighting  
capability reduced. I tend to care much less about threshold 1 on any  
ship with two or more firecons, and want to maximize damage  
absorption/deflection/avoidance capability to the end of the second  
row, if I can.
