My ears picked this up on local chatter but it got me thinking and did some research on my own why that guy was saying what he said.
The sources are quite uncredible still, its not like info on the test server database but reasoning was decent warrented the attention though.
The reason why all the all got nerfed as bad as they did is for one reason...
We're looking at the frigate sized modules.
Now the reason why it would make sense is the size stated by the module slot, similar to guns the letters S is by each and every single one of them. Now was this intentional or UI bug.
Now hold on you say? This could be an error with ammo size stated on the module!
This is true by why the ammo size trait on the module could trigger the icon on the module picture, but alas they didnt need this trait at all
go observe the missile launchers.
Do any of those state any ammo sizes? No not a single missile launcher has S M or L by them.
Now it can get iffy here though, missile launchers shoot a wide variety of things such as the small defender and a heavy missile in the same tubes. This may be the reason why the launchers dont have icons.
Still not a single missile launcher out there needed the size of ammo statement they used specific ammo types.
still why couldnt they do the same for the scripted modules name specific types instead of being all over the place and state all thier scripts as 'small'.
This leads reason to belive there may be battleship and cruiser sized modules with different set of scripts. The size of the script can also control that larger ships may have to sacrifice more than the 100% effect of said module to be in line with the frigate one to make things 'fair' and balanced with eve class to class fighting.
But its rumor still and none the less scuttlebuck talk you can discuss though if you want.

What?
Does anyone else read that and in your head you hear him stop talking every time he moves to the next line? It's like reading this:

I am not wholly certain what exactly you said but the S on those modules stands for "Scripts" which is their type of ammunition now. +++++++++++++++ I saw the Sign...!

Okay, even EVE devs aren't that wise. 
It's great being Amarr isn't it.

I think the S is there to indicate that it needs Scripts?

Check the modules all of them say "CHARGE SIZE - Small" on their description.
All the charges aka scripts say "CHARGE SIZE - Small"
exemption to that description would be the Warp Distuptor Focusture script where no size was stated.

I would love for you to be right, won't hold my breath tho. maybe some nerfing was required to some of the modules, but right now a lot of EWar is almost useless even on dedicated ships.
Combat Recon are supposed to be heavy tacklers as i see it. well the Gall one isn't doing so well whit the dampener nerf and the multitude of other scrambler platforms.
Force recon have been taking a number of hits, NOS nerf hit the pilgrim hard and again dampeners are not so hot any more.
I really hope that either the modules/scripst are getting a look at again or the Recons themselves get a look at.

You're reading WAY too much into this. More likely that the database gets cranky if not given a charge size and they just used small as a default. -------------------- ICE Blueprint Sales FIRST!! -Yipsilanti Pfft. Never such a thing as a "last chance". ;) -Rauth |

And the old Harbringer bonus clearly stated that it got a dmg increase to ALL lasers. Alas it didn't 
The working of the Dev's is not to be understood by us mere mortals. We just get to ***** and moan at them on teh interweb when we disagree with

Just saying it seems to me they put alot of trouble to get all but 1 module of the scripted ones to have small charges when its clear its not a needed trait. Its also not a known issue, these sorta things do get written up as bugs... thats It! Ill write a bug report see what they say about it.
