The Sumo is not a riot though - its a heavy designed to be good at fighting swarms of smaller units, which is not the same thing. It doesn't need alpha or twitch reaction speed. The appeal of a spin-up weapon is that mixing it up with a Sumo would become increasingly uneconomical (eg. swarming it with units), but that it can be skirmished if you can outrun it. Also, it would make walking the sumo at defenses initially unprofitable (that is the role of jacks) - currently the sumo massacres porc.
