Yes, I can see your point that this can be used for a number of 
additional changes:
In SFB terms:
Legendary captain.
Legendary Gunnery officer.
Ect.

This concept could also lead to four ships armed with the same 
weapons having 4 different ranges for one player to control.
It is all a matter of how much 'detail' of 'accuracy' or PSB
you are willing to put up with.

While what I suggested may be somewhat crude, it has the 
virtue of simplicity. :-)
