Your correct, it's intentional. The final paragraph in the
Interceptor Pods rules section reads "Any fighter group, missile salvo
or plasma bolt within 12mu may be targeted, not just those attacking
the firing ship.

The rules in the Interceptor Pod section does not specify a different
kill rate against heavy fighters, however it does mention that it's
effect is the same as that of a KV Scattergun which as you mentioned
essentially kills 1D3 heavy fighters.
