Pick three, there is no reason to use medium rails on a Myrm, it does better with AC's or Arties depending on employment.
1) nope 2) nope, arties use more CPU which is the bottleneck of drone boats 3) awesome, kill the enemy with your 5.5 more cap 4) only partially, and damage type affects your range as well (lel)
Reasons to use rails:
1) better dps 2) better range 3) better tracking 4) better RoF
In practical PVE use arties are horrible. If/when you miss two shots of 720mms (which won't fit anyway), that's half a minute of doing no turret damage. During this time, 250mms have pumped out six volleys with better tracking and optimal.

This would also be workable in L3s, if not a tad overtanked:

Not really, not for L3s which are short and low on incoming damage. You only need to do one or two nanite cycle every now and then, reloading is not mandatory and if you want, you can do that in between waves.

Well that is true, I didn't include cost considerations. However, if ISK is the goal, makes no sense to run L3s or missions in the first place.

Actually you can fit largest rails but not largest arties.
