Caldari have the exact same situation with the Merlin (hybrid only) compare to Hawk (missile only) and Harpy (hybrid only). I do not see how that is a problem with the Amarr line-up. Gallente are not comparable at all as they only have Hybrids as High slot weapons and nothing else.
The Dragoon is a Drone-Neut boat, not a gun/turret boat. Besides, what is "undersized" for you? There are no smaller than Small Neut/NOS in the game as far as I know and the Dragoon is meant to use Smalls.
The very same goes for the Arbitrator. It does not need guns or launchers, it's a focused Neut-Drone boat. Pushing guns (except for civ guns to trigger drones maybe) on there is just a waste. More grid, however, could be interesting to actually allow medium neuts to be fitted in addition to tank.
The Maller is a tanky Laser Brawler with a lot of DPS for the tank. No other cruiser has that tank level with the DPS. What more can people probably want?
The Tormentor apparently is an amazing brawler as it stands, shredding a wide range of other T1 and even T2 frigates with ease.
The Prophecy may have less DPS than a Vexor, but it has more tank and a lot of utility (Neut-Smartbomb-Drone-DPS).
The Armageddon's CPU is fine, I would argue. It actually limits you on how many drone modules you can fit and requires trade-offs. I have a nice little Geddon fitting that goes well above 1k DPS. The only trade-offs I need to make with it are a Meta 4 web and LAAR instead of T2 LAR. More CPU would remove that logical fitting room cap for drone boats and I do not view this as beneficial.

I said the Merlin, the equivalent of the Punisher, is a Hybrid turning into a Missile and Hybrid T2 version. The Laser Punisher turns into a Laser and Missile T2 version. If at all, the Merlin would need to change to Missiles as Missiles are the primary weapon of Caldari.

Also a primary weapon system of Amarr please see arbitrator, prophecy and geddon
Excuse me? Arbitrator, Prophecy and Armageddon primary weapons are Drones. Missiles are the exclusive domain of Khanid ships. That missiles are the only viable choice for the Geddon due to the bonuses to cap warfare does not make them primary weapons, especially not since none of these ships have bonuses to missiles.

With regards to the Punisher being considered bad. I cannot avoid the impression that people want to have every ship being able to function as a solo ship. I find this disturbing. Has someone thought about it being a fleet oriented ship that relies on proper tackle and support to deal the damage. It could probably need some work, but I would like to see it pushed more into that direction than yet another ship suitable for solo.
