Imho the firepower loss can be somehow compensated by improvement (up to +3, according to the present formula on wikiwiki). The accuracy bonus, however, might reward you in some other way like higher critical chance, etc.

I guess CLs are never meant to compete w/ anything higher than CA. Function-wisely, it's more like a strengthened version of DD.
