.. and for the very same reason recoil reduction has no effect :D

Also your rate of fire (rof) DOES affect your effective fire rate and thus DPS, unless you manually hit the reload button after each shot to cancel the recoil animation. Because if you dont, the weapon (like all weapons in warframe!) will wait for 1/rof seconds before starting the automatic reload. With a rof of 1.5 shots/s this implies an additional waiting time of 0.667 seconds, which is roughly as much as the reaload time including Fast Hands. So yes, the rof has a significant influence w/o manual reload.

On another note, even with manual reload, the additional critchance from critical delay will never give you as much additional damage as Charged Chamber or even another elemental mod.
