I don't see any connection there.
My idea is to remove the autofire ability. That's what makes PD so crazy; with autofire, it is like minesweepers. You kill the first X missiles for free, guaranteed

By removing autofire, your ships actually have to work to shoot down missiles, and the inefficient cooperation between ships means some of the missiles get through, even when you have tons of PDCs. You'd have shots ready, but be unable to use them in time.
