I'm not sure that I've played IT more than once in a non-AI game, but I overgate all the time. What I don't do is overgate both mass and distance at the same time. I also try to have a SFX at the other end that I can merge with to instarepair the damage, but I overgate alot even if there is no fleet with which to merge. I also try to keep my overgating to under 130% of rated mass/distance. Yeah, I lose some ships and some of my ships end up entering combat pre-damaged, but it seems well worth it to me to have the extra weapons and shields.
