Also back to BHG, last time i checked no one ever complained about the BHG guns or ships, since they have it quite decent enough as is.
On that note you might say i prescribe to the old school thought of, 'if it ain't broke, dont fix it'
You don't see the big picture.
The BHG have it good now, but they HAVE to stay ahead of the competition, or the enemy. The Corsairs and Outcasts for one as you said, have very powerful weaponry, forcing the BHG to get good too.
But you think it'll stagnate like that? Its like a research war out there, everyone needs to develop better equipment to keep up in the kill or be killed world.
If the enemy gets better, you are forced to get better, then the enemy is forced to get better and so on an so forth for as long as possible.
I recommend reading up on the Cold War, look how much technology in the military advanced without getting into a fight. Heck, even in WWII, look how much weapons advanced in such a short period of time.
