Well, maybe a normal/unpowered pick can do crowbar damage, but a working/powered one does a bit more damage, maybe toolbox leveled? When you think of it, they have to rip through asteroids and if a miner gets traitor, at least they can have that tool to start out with the moment they spawn, like many other people have different things to start out with. Really, if you needed to wait until you used your PDA, a pick would be an okay impromptu weapon. I mean, the detective gets a gun, scientists get chemicals, chef gets utensils, roboticist gets saws/scalpels and the miners gets some shitty picks? I think that at the very least, they should do more than they currently can. It balances things out a bit.
