Instead of CSM it should be SCM, for Santa Claus Missile, in honor of their omniscience.
dmm,
Maybe they not "seekers" in a true sense. Maybe they being guided by some means. Like the TOW anti tank missile which has a wire attached to the missile to give it guidence until it's target or maybe IT like the current AAMRAM missile that uses both a link to it's lauching aircraft as well as it's internal seeker to reach a target.
I think the AI scrip needs to be tweeked so that they put PDC on theirs ships when needed but otherwise the 100% is fine. Not realistic maybe but it works for the game.
