Gateability isn't the issue - this I agree on entirely.

Advantages of ARM...

The potato bug is actually a nifty little miner. It's 0 tech requirement means you can pump out a fairly efficient miner from turn 0 and keep going. It's a miner hull that doesn't need redesigning for a while since only the 12kt miner is only marginally more effecient and probably not worth upgrading to.

The top-of-the-range-only-available-to-ARM miner robot is another good reason for ARM. It's a miner robot that competes with the Alien miner. It's 1/2 the resource cost of the next best miner robot and mines only 2kt less. It's cheaper to build, lower mineral cost too (IIRC - no stars @ work) and most of all... it mines almost as well miner to miner. By this stage resources should be your limiting factor and as such the ARM top miner mines almost 2x the minerals than the nearest non-arm competitor... that's as good a reason as any to take ARM because effectively you're either doubling your mining rate or halfing the cost of your mining.
