If that turns out to be true, Null-Space on Normal mounts could be really good against large ships. Ignores large+ mounted weapons and takes out critical little stuff (Bridge, Crew, Computer, Life Support, ECM, Sensors, Talisman!, Shield Generators, etc. And Crystalline races could use Shard Cannons to pick off these important components as well.

Don't know if it works like that, but if it does, does it really help? Think about it, losing control components prevents the ship from moving fast, but you're probably at point blank range by that time anyway. Likewise for sensors.
