Thing is insulated gloves are already rushed by most people. I am against this change, especially considering the powers needed for an instagib aren't common at all, not even in artifact generators, and hotwires are often discovered before they can be weaponized.
This is cheap, random, and permanent, but so is a TTV, and that's arguably even worse, because you don't even have to be particularly competent to blow half the station up, the formula for a decent TTV is always the same, and you have telesci, which means you can kill several more people, case way more disarray, and even force a shuttle call without ever leaving your department.
A gib hotwire needs a lot of setup, and if you're caught, expect to be unable to pull it off for the rest of the round.
