It's almost like... the developers don't want you taking ships that universally draw fire from light ships and are completely immune to all other attacks on a lot of maps... because it makes aggro control AKA 'tanking' possible, so they had to compensate by making them a liability except on maps designed specifically for them and they get totally rekt everywhere else.

Sloppy design? Sure. Results in 'fair' gameplay as long as you play by the unwritten rules? Yeah, more or less.
