Crit seeking would be just fine if crit said were something that happened at a time other than "right before I die"

Not necessarily true, crits would matter a lot more if equipment was critically destroyed more often and if crit seeking weapons were actually better at that job instead of being worse. Then of course there are potentially crits to important mech systems, like actuators or the gyro or the engine or whatever else, although adding that in is not as important as adjusting item health values and such.

Not really; that's a buff to the laser meta, as large ballistics already suffer from, and would suffer more from, critical hits, as they take up more slots and therefore are much easier to crit.

I think that, rather than messing with underlying systems (let's be realistic, that's very unlikely to happen), we should just stick to the system that we have now, and apply damage buffs until MGs are in a decent place.

Can't people hyper spam the mg on a macro? Was that exploit ever patched?

Doubt it.
