It is obvious that the general theme for the rare techs is powerful yet situational. There is no difference here.Basically with this tech, you have to use 2, other wise there isn't much point (since a ship with 3 hull or 2 hull are destroyed in the same # of orange and red hits.) With 2 conifold field you can take 3 orange hits in 2 sockets (or 2 CF & 1 IH to take 2 red hits) which is pretty good but since that costs 4 energy, you need tachyon source (or better). So it can be good in the right situation, but not every situation.
