Give the Gnosis its full bonuses

The Gnosis is a battlecruiser used mainly for its versatility, but I've noticed that it's lacking a particular bonus.
Namely, Rapid Light Missile Launchers.
It doesn't get a damage bonus for this, while it does get a bonus for HML's and HAMs.

Rapid lights are in a special category, as are RHML. Most ships with missile bonuses don't receive bonuses to the rapid launchers.

Rapid Lights are specifically not bonused on missile BC's, Only Cruisers.
As BC's are heavier CCP wanted to keep them more vulnerable to small ships.

Working exactly as intended basically.

No it´s very flexible but it was never said that you can fit everything on it and get bonuses.

I think they should just take away RLML and RHML bonuses from the ships that have them, and roll the bonus into the launcher. It's not a very good auxiliary weapon if the only ships that use it properly have a full rack of launcher hardpoints (read: no auxiliary launcher hardpoints).

While charging them with MWD on, to get the missiles to impact across the span of a single rep cycle, thereby alpha-ing most things.

Hey as long as it takes 60 seconds to re-load.

Maybe they should just buff the RoF even more, increase re-load time to 3 minutes, and just say nobody can fit more than 2 of them.
