That will make some weapons (or if you like, all of them) more effective, and the LMG/HMG are the ones which will really benefit, as they will be able to damage more stuff on hit...

I couldn't agree more. I've been saying this for years. The biggest issue with current weapons is:

1. poor marksmanship
2. Limited damage model

Notice I didn't say "poor" DM. The next-gen sims (both RoF and SoW) should benefit greatly from much more detailed DM. This will enhance (not increase it per se) weapon damage, incidental contact damage, airfoil stress damage due to exceeding aircraft performance limits, etc,. All good things that the current DM we're used to is lacking.
