You didn't actually address anyone's points here and, no, Armored Weapon Mounts is not dumb on a Paragon for keeping weapons online. The fact that shield hullmods are good on it is not evidence that AWM is bad. I don't know where you got the impression that just because you are boosting shields, you can't also boost armor. You have the OP and it directly solves one of your main points, that the ship's weapons can get knocked out.
It is 1650 vs 1925. The former is weak and the latter is indestructible?! Come on now, that is just patently, utterly ridiculous as a statement. 1925 is higher than 1650 sure, but not that much higher. Over and over you claim that the Paragon's armor is bad and therefor you won't invest anything in it. Circular reasoning or a self-fulfilling prophecy, your pick.
Another assertion you keep saying over and over again is that the Pegasus is a glass cannon, and you use that to claim that 1500 is low armor. That is also circular reasoning at its finest! Why is the Pegasus a glass cannon despite having good shields (17k base + .8 efficiency is better than an Onslaught and it gets more HP/capacity) and 17k hull (right between an Onslaught and a Legion)? Well it must be because its armor is low! Therefor 1500 is low armor. That's just not true. The Pegasus isn't a glass cannon.
