Devastating-in-the-right-circumstance is accurate, however the problem is that you will almost never have the circumstance to do so :
1) you would have to terminate all pods before hand (better done with any other pod weapon, otherwise RIP ammo count)
2) even without pods, any spacesuited guy with a jetpack can ruin your parade.
2) you will not have any form of escort/support as a singular antag. If you use the star wars analogy, who sends a bomber alone, with just enough ammo to vent one segment? Nukies can't buy the 40mm, and using the 40mm on gangs or revs is kind of questionable (basically rampaging or kill-all spree)
You could argue that you can mindslave someone to support you, but for what - a 2 minute shooting spree at escape before you run out of ammo? You could chembomb it in the same amount of time with a chem dispenser and without the exorbitant credit cost.
