This is actually not true, the flaks are make specifically to keep bombers at range, but not really to rape them. Right now (in 4.84) bombers have 2 options against BS, 1. Go really close - BS player can't move that fast in turret view or even simply keep up with the cursor when the bomber flies circles around him.
2. Bombard from farther away.
At medium range (300-500ms) they mostly get blasted by the BS.
So flak is there to remove or suppress option 1. keeping the spirit of defensive rather than offensive weapon.
