Default Depleted Uranium Cannons to powerful!

Am I the only one to notice with the 0.99 demo that DUC's are now so powerful as to render Meson BLasters and Anti Proton Beams practically useless? A DUC at max techlevel can dish out 40 points of damage while a Meson BLaster at max tech level can only deliver 30 points of damage but has one square longer range. Anti-Proton Beams at max tech level dish out 50 points of damage at point blank range and the same as the DUC at it's maximum range. The DUC is very cheap and fast to get to max tech level while Meson BLasters and Anti-Proton Beams are very expensive to get to max tech level. So why bother with them? Why not rush to DUC V and stick with that until you get Incinerator Beams or something? I think they need to be toned down. I also think the research cost for the Meson BLasters need to be lowered a little, but maybe that's just because I like them so much.
