I think the thing with the smoke launcher is.. well lets compare it to a gun and for the sake of argument lets call the gun a "bullet launcher"
The bullet launcher is there to give you a ranged attack that hits someone more than 1 square away from you/launch it with enough velocity to damage the fuck out of whoever it hits.
The smoke launcher is designed to launch smoke canisters further than can be thrown with being thrown by hand.
The top down view of SS13 means that anywhere you can see to launch, you can probably throw it that far as well...
