For people who focus on aiming guns, such a change would make bombers more effective, not less.
Its very hard to find a perfect substitute. Unfortunately, most people go head to head in physical terms with a bomber in a VHF at least once in a battle. I do it too, if I count, about five times in a battle against bombers, and I've paid for it many times. Once you go head to head, speed matters less and raw power matters more. Raw power is what the bomber has, and always will have, unless the entire concept is revisited.
More effective ? Just don't joust the bomber. If he is slower and bigger, it will be easy for a VHF to stay behind the bomber and safely pwnd him. Bombers will be still very efficient against caps.
