I already said my piece back in the original spawning topic, but I wanted to cover this in particular.
If we're judging specialty armor solely on the merits of "well, what if it got shot in the face with <x>?", then the only armor ever worth taking would be Hardened. And even that doesn't really hold up since a Heavy Gauss Rifle at short or a iHGR would still take off the head. That seems really disingenuous to me.
I'm almost certain that post was a joke; just look at the attached image for further context. In fact his actual opinion on BRA :
Otherwise, I think it's worth twice its weight in Germanium compared to everything short of Ferro Lamellor.
Clearly, he doesn't hold its inability to tank a HLL headshot against the armor.
