Not really, they're more of an abstraction to account for very real weapon systems having a minimum safe distance (like Rockets and Torpedoes) programmed into them to either protect the launch platform/person, distance themselves enough from the launch platform to activate their seeker heads and start maneuvering, or for their engines to ramp up to full capability.

Reality =/= good game design.

It's a non sequitur really, it depends on what is one trying to achieve with the game. If it's a simulator trying to achieve realism, then yes. But if it's a pvp combat game that requires a semblance of balance, that depends on what counterplay you want to happen and if said counterplay is warranted.

Actually, snubs are the brawling weapon. Heavies are just the high alpha version, 3 more tons for 5 more damage.

Don't take minimum range off heavy's
