Well, my Kusari example was maybe not the best. Have to admit that. But all you want for the Zoners is a ship for every situation. Why should they have a full scale shipline like you want them to have? Not to mention that there are many possibilities for the Zoners. They can use CTE shipline and the BW shipline. They can use GMG, Order, IMG, CR ships (only with permission and nerf though) with almost no enemies. All they could need is a decent trade route i've heard.
Right. Let's break some of this down onto why a developed shipline helps out Zoner's in Evolving their lore, Adapting to the changing times in/around Sirius, etc.

Zoners, inrp and oorp, have gone through hell and back for the past few years. There is nothing wrong to state that within that time, Zoner Engineers in O-74 (And Jinx), couldn't have thought of ways to improve upon their current shipline. Like the Rheinland Unlawful factions, they adapted the CTE line to create their own variants for their own use. Whats wrong to say that the Zoners couldn't do the same with their technology and the CTE line? There isnt. What's wrong to say they had assistance from their allies as well? A Technological meeting of the minds?

Doc answers this quite well.

I can agree to that.
In case people haven't seen the proposed shipline adjustment, I'll post it once more.
Nothing OP in tech terms.
Nothing out of place in comparison to the majority of developed shiplines in sirius.
