Who cares? The term unbalance refers to someone gaining an advantage over another that the second person cannot get. In this case, WO3 is widely availible to everyone and thereby negates itself.
The game has tons of issues that need addressing that adversly affect players and this one is so minor as it adversly affects no one that this can wait a long time.
Fix Rangers. Fix Squad Leader. Fix Smuggler (my own favorate)
Fix the stupid token respec window that annoys me constantly
Fix the pilot and shipwright issues

I guess its all about context whether or not you think the word unbalance applies in this case. The argument could be made , that it does not because everyone has access to it. However Ibelieve this to be a myopic way of looking at things. Balance easily applies if you are talking about an issue that undermines the fundamental intention of a game component.Imperial pilots who are given a maximum of 2 guns in their ships may take exception to that, as they gain less from the bug and would be better positioned to continue using WO3 on all their ships after a fix. Smaller single gunfighters in general are undermined by the existence of this bug, as they would be the ships best able to use the higher WOs in the absence of this bug. I do however agree that there are many other bugs in this game that need fixing, but that hardly trivializes this one.

Math??? Dude pilots dont do math they fly ships. If you cant figure out how to get your ship working, then get another ship or try becoming a dancer or something...you should be grounded and your wings stripped forever

I'm always looking for the extra (legal) edge, if it takes math, spreadsheets, databases,hours of loot collecting or regrinding pilot several times I don't mind. Besides, tactics,situational awareness and manouvering require intelligence and creativity too. Pilot is an allround profession, takes both brain and twitch skills.
I dare to claim every pilot that soloed all the missions and capital targets in JTL is at leastadequate in all and proficient to excellent in some skills like outfitting ships, thinking up and applying tactics, situational awareness, twitch skills and very much aware of his/her strong and weak points.
I know my strong and weak points so I build my ships anduse tactics to fit that. I have the most succes if I build to my strong points but this leaves little room for error. Others mighthave more succes withreinforcing their weak points and becoming more allround. A bit of math can definately helpto get the most out ofa ship.
Like Ducimus says in his sig, "The amature thinks about tactics; the professional thinks of logistics."
