No, I like where you're coming from but that wouldn't be for the best..
Prof. only affecting the primary damage is a good way to go. It also diversifies game play which is a much needed change. The real issue is the upcoming dual tankers and heavies that are on the horizon with 1.8.

So with Prof at 5 (using current mechanics)
SCR: 138% shields, 80% armor.
CR: 80% shields, 138% armor.
RR: 90% shields, 126% armor.
AR: 126% shields, 90% armor.
.
Combat Rifle Damage Profile is 95% Shield, 105-110% Armor. Either way it has the best damage profile in the game with no drawback for it.
The SCR can get away with the 80% because of the higher Alpha damage but if you did that with projectiles they'd be hard to penetrate shields.
(not that I care or anything)

That's odd, Why is the CR different from the rest? Shouldn't it be the weakest weapon against shields?
Explosives are the thing that are 80% shields - 120% armor.
Or at least it should be. Here's the answers from a Dev Blog

It would certainly be better than this 95%-110% nonsense.
