I like very much how they use ballistics instead of beamguns. I mean people still get one-shotted when the plot calls for it but still

Most of them are not getting one shoted unless they get hit by ship artillery. Most it's ether superficial damage or disabling rather then fatal.

I kind of like how the big battles are presented with the suits having to retreat back to the ships to reload, repair and refuel.

If WW2 was any indication, re-arming procedures are when a ship is most vulnerable to getting turbo-hosed

i expect this show to make absolutely no acknowledgement of this fact

If it was, it could not have been more obvious

The first establishing moment the guy has and he immediately thinks of McGillis? Who else could it be?

It's why them more or less send the suits out in waves. So they have some suits to defend the ships while the original front liners are rearming.
