Bombs in FS2 also had next to 0 shield damage, which isn't the case of BP bombs and torpedoes. Believe me, you WANT those things to do next than 0 damage when you're intercepting them.
I played the very first release of AoA and all that followed... do I even need to say more?

I still routinely get killed by the Temeraire's torpedoes when assaulting the Vassago in Forced Entry :p
People are stupid, therefore anything popular is at best suspicious.

Um... the Ravana chasing the Termeraire is the Abel in Forced Entry. The Vassago shows up in Preserving the Balance and suffers death by beams.

And I got killed by a Narayana's torpedoes (yeesh, they really hurt) when I tried to do my own close-quarter bombing run on a Typhon.
