Emissive armor has its uses though. Make a ship with 11 crystal armor and one shield. It stands invulnerable against 150 damage points/shot. Then make ship with all that + one emissive armor and it stands punishment of 170 damage points/shot. However, in SEIV there is tendency that for some unknown reason smaller components are destroyed first and so this one component is only help against first few shot (it is smaller than crystal armor). If this bug is fixed in future, its value increases significantly.
It is opposite for armour Bigger pieces tend to be destroyed first AFAIK.
