totally agree with your points, but its no rail gun at all (also Lanka is none) since railguns need FULL CHARGE to fire a projectile (no beam, sorry)

a hold mechanic would be essential foe me to be a useable weapon, otherwise it will rot in my inventory cuz it looks so cool

the fire rate is quite slow but with a hold mechanic it would be no problem

also a big beam weapon with an anhillating blast should have at least 3m punch through, since Lanka has innate 5m, or a Drakgoon (stated as a grineer flak cannon) has 2m on full charge, so this box of death (its design was also introduced as a "corpus flak cannon" in Devstream 37 or 38) should have a lot of it
