Yes, it's obviously impossible for cannons and the like, that's why I said "where it makes sense ". Single-target DPS would still be informative for more weapons than not. All the melee, bullet and bolt weapons, the majority of energy and shell weapons... Not to mention I don't see, why it should be one number, it could be done in a form of range. Also I don't know why you mention ammo consumption, DPS is a stat used to measure damage output, not efficiency (or which weapon is better). JW not liking his game being based around numbers is nice, but doesn't change the fact that the splinter pistol has higher damage output than the heavy crossbow and is more useful in many situations (which is very counter-intuitive, just one example). This page is already impossible to understand without knowledge of all the damage types so I don't see how would adding another stat that requires interpretation be "uninformative", but have it your way, I'll just create a local copy of this page with my additions.
