I like faster vent on Polarized Armor.  Gives a reason to pick Industry, and a reason for high-tech flagships (with flux-hungry weapons and speed to escape) to pick the skill.  Still, I would pick Ordnance Expert over Polarized Armor unless piloting a ship with no shield or otherwise always gets +25% armor/EMP DR.

• Ordnance Expertise: Not quite bottom of the barrel for elite effects, but close. May be higher priority if I'm specifically raising an officer to be installed in a frigate, though. (Or phase ship, I suppose, but I probably wouldn't be giving them ordnance expertise at all for a phase ship.)
  
  

Ordnance Expertise is essentially a 25% discount on weapons OP, that's HUGE for lowtech and midline. You're basically paying 33% more OP for weapons when you don't have it.

In my Pegasus it frees up about 55OP which allows me to put two whole new hullmods.

Check the date my dude.

And skills had a balance pass since then.
