Akizuki or Maya's AA cut-in never be 'crappy'. The only thing 'crappy' about that two is how their rate is around 70%, and those two have the highest proc rate with proper equipment.

When your supposedy not-crappy AA cut-in fail to empty enemy carrier's bombers, blame other factor(s) that is not AA cut-in. Like me, someone who almost never emptied Wo-class flagship's bombers despite air supremacy + AA cut-in from Akizuki + fleet AA defense. Everyone can brag how they made Wo-class useless with Akizuki. I cannot.

Also 'pointless' might be a bit harsh; even 4 plane shot-down AA cut-in can do wonders if you roll the correct numbers. If ever.

Many other AA cut-in setup, though, I can agree it's pointless.
