Don't forget that mounts higher than the cockpit deson't give any meaningful advantage unless when you are using 3PV.
Mounting GRs on ST also risk the chance of losing your arms when they go boom. On the other hand, Blood Asp's ST mounted Gauss permits tighter convergence which is useful like when you are leading the shots.
Speaking about the arms, there's a bit vertical gap between the arm mounted lasers and the high mounted ST Gauss on the Blood Asp which is not a good thing.
Yeah i dont actually think id use the Asp with dual guass for those reasons - it does get a 3B RT and a 4E LT so it could probably run an entirely high mount build there with 3xUAC5 or 2xUAC10 and lasers or PPCs

for the Mk II, she gets access to JJ's....
Asp gets JJs too - in fact it might be able to get 7JJs, because the A variant has 3JJs, one in each torso, and the E variant has 4JJs, 2 in each leg. So with pod swapping... Not sure youd want to because 14 tons of JJs is a lot, and the A STs dont have weapon mounts, but still.
