Middle game: not putting any armor on my BBs anyway. : |
Keeps them gate-able

Are you just building beamer BBs then? If you're building missile BBs, you're still not going to be able to gate them (unless you're IT), even without armor.
I don't know about you, but I find that armor per missile ratio is an important part of winning battles.
I suppose you could compensate by placing fewer than the maximum number of missiles on your BBs... it would be interesting to test.
Another factor in my thinking, I suppose, is that I will never play anything larger than Medium universes, and I strongly prefer Small. This limits the additional value of stargates once the mid-game hits and warp 10 engines arrive on the scene. Still useful, but not nearly as much as when you're playing in large or huge.
Good point about the stargates, though...
