Those damage types are not inherently "base damage"; they just happen to be what the base damage is comprised of for most weapons. If you put this mod on lecta, it would actually give you no bonus at all, because lecta has no slash modifier. What this mod does is basically add 90% of your slash damage as a separate slash packet, which is not as good as using a regular element. It doesn't increase the weapon's "base" damage, you can test this both in your loadout screen and in game.
