Is there any advantages to using either Stream LRM or Standard LRM?

To me it feels like Stream LRMs work best against larger targets and hit one zone more effective but with smaller mechs, they seam to avoid stream fire more and you have a better chance of hitting them with standart LRM.

For small, fast-moving targets, regular LRMs are good. ST LRMs are great against large, slow-moving targets.

Artemis is better for both, especially ST+ Artemis LRM 20s.

Stream LRM seem to be better at hitting CTs, but have a greater minimal range (200m) as opposed to 180m for standard LRMs.

Personally, I use standard LRMs because so many enemies like to move in close, and those 20 meters often make a difference.
