Question about Weapon Mounts!?!?

When you go into the ship/unit design screen click the 'weapon mounts' section. This gives a list of options and where they can be applied (IE, Large weapon mounts for small weapon platforms, Huge weapon mounts for Med and Massive for Large weapon plats.) Ships do it the same way (Large for Light Cruisers, Heavy for Battleships and Massive for BaseShips.)

These mounts are 'stored' in the CompEnhancement.txt file and can be altered to fit what you want (ie, modded). There are many mods that add different mounts (Deathstalkers Mount Mod, SJ's P&N, DevnullMod, Proportions, etc). Many of these mods are included on the gold disk under 'extras'.

I've seen this same 'why does the other guy have better weapons' question so many times that I'm beginning to think MM needs to alter the UI in the ship design screen somehow or other to make mounts more obvious.

Like use the heavy mount possible by default ?
