IIRC, the White Base at the start of the series was crewed by a
novice crew. The real explanation would be that the crew are Newtypes, but
even then, both Mirai and Bright are not known as strong NTs.

I'm not too sure. How good are railguns at penetration? What I
really want is penetrative power, something which an explosive warhead can
be designed to do, but I'm not too sure how good spikes are at it.

I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection.
Excellence I can reach for; perfection is God's business.
