Apparently the "infinite fire rate" bug occurs even when a ship has crew, but its weapons are disabled!

(At least for point defense weapons...)

I'm suspecting the ship is losing another one of its critical control components. Likely due to skip armor/null-space weapon damage. I saw dozens of combats with v1.77 and never noticed the rapid weapon fire bug, so I don't think it's happening outside of a critical component being lost.
