I saw this argument on youtube about the benefits of loading up missiles with thresher maw acid as it clearly eats through shields like nobody's business, but it think the main problem was that retrofits take ages (esp if the unions keep going on strike) so the alliance and other fleets may only have had a handful ships with operational Thanix cannons. Every other kind of cannon does little to no damage (maybe a scaled down version of the particle beam weapon would be just as efficient)
