The true most useless module in Eve - multispec ECCM - like ECCM - Omni I
There is never a reason to use a multi-spec ECCM over the racial ECCM.
I think we've got a winner. 1B ISK to anyone who can come up with a good and "reasonable" purpose of multi-spec ECCM over a racial ECCM.
You'd use an Omni-ECCM on a Jovian Battleship, seeing as the Jovian BS has all four sensor types. Can I have 1b ISK now ?

1.T2 Target Painters
They have the same stats as the best named one, and use more cap and fitting requirements.
-True of most EW, T2 are usually easier to find than best named, also EW ships usually have loads of CPU making fitting a non-issue.
2.Cap flux coils
-no argument
3.Shield flux coils
-useful for Pottsey's shield recharge rate record setting on Gallente ships
4. All cap batteries save large ones. (they can come in handy now and then)
-no argument
5. Smartbombs. Thier range is just way to small to be helpfull I find.
-Large Smartbombs are useful on some battleships, especially if you're going to go against drone-ships. Also Faction and Officer smartbombs are required fitting for some capital and supercapital ships.
6. Webifier Drones. Why spend 125m3 to web a guy to 80% instead of loading a wave of heavies? (they are way too big)
-You've never flown a Megathron have you?
7. resistance platings
-every now and then you have one lowslot, and no CPU whatsoever.
Just some ideas.

There are a couple of players with Jovian Battleships in their hangar, award or somesuch. And no, with a Jovian Battleship you'd have to do a successful jam on every sensor type to jam the ship for a cycle, which means 4 seperate checks on each sensor type.
an omni ECCM I gives +80% to all sensor types, whereas a racial gives +80% to just one, making Omni much better for a Jovian Battleship.
On top of that since Omni ECCM gives exactly the same boost to sensor strength as a racial, uses the same fitting, and only marginally more capacitor (on a decent sized ship), an alliance being lazy and stocking some Cheap Tech 2 omni ECCM instead of 4 kinds of regular ECCM isn't that far-fetched.

what you fail to realize is that while a t2 racial jammer boosts sensor strength by 96 on one type, an omni II boosts them ALL by 96 in exchange for using a bit more cap.

You'd still use an Omni ECCM on a Jovian Battleship on the OFF Chance that some jerk will actually be able to jam your first sensor type.
