That sounds rather exagerated but I agree with the spirit of it. The shotgun is being made less random by tripling the number of rays. Shotguns need to retain spread so that they still do damage when their crosshair is slightly off-target.
Indeed the same argument may be made for keeping spread for the SMG; I think maybe a combination of lower spread and lower damage with range would work well for automatic weapons.
