Well how about for starters Nova Knives do "Pure" damage just like normal melee, hence why the Nova Knife proficiency skill is a raw 3%/level bonus period NOT to either shield OR armor, but BOTH.
Secondly, and importantly, Shotguns are NOT projectiles hence why the proficiency bonus deals 3%/level bonus against shields, look Galante not Minnie, and is a Blaster Hybrid weapon (+10% shields -10% armor).
So...
Yeah...

Yup, Shotties, ARs, Blaster turrets (both large and small), Ion Pistols and Plasma Cannons are all classed as Hybrid Blasters.

I must be reading too much into this or not enough .
Sort of, but it is a double-edged sword. The Minnie relies on mobility and the Cal on regen, and both suffer from a notable lower EHP pool then the Gal and Amarrian heavies so right off the bat they are "easier" to kill if shots start landing in a short-range in-your-face engagement. Next while they do have a resist against Blasters they are also fighting against the natural bonus of the blaster (Blasters do +10% against shields, the primary HP of both Minnie and Cal sents)...
So in the end they usually get blown away even faster against a steady-handed Shot Gunner (Or an SG-user using surprise).
