Don’t bother. Some will never learn or develop a sense of humor. 
That has got to be the weirdest assertion to refute.

But it is completely wrong. Has your character ever asphyxiated?
You offering to give him a helping hand?

Lol. EVE has no gravity. Your space-ship defies physics by having its thrusters still firing while you are decelerating. You travel 2000 times faster than the speed of light yet defy physics again by not arriving before you started, and no time dilation. You somehow reach faster than light speed using just thrusters. You have the bizarre situation where big ships can only have big guns…unlike in RL where big ships nearly always have small fast tracking guns too. And don’t even get me started on how in the 230th century a gun struggles to lock on a stationary target 200 metres ( that’s bigger than a Jumbo jet ) in size…and that’s the smaller targets like frigates…at a mere 20 miles…yet laser systems in RL can already lock onto and shoot down ballistic missiles in split seconds. EVE is disturbingly in-accurate. But then…it is just a game. I’ll give you a clue….it’s not meant to be RL.

Nobody’s stopping you from putting a few frigate turrets on your battleship, it’ll be a funny km.

Not to mention the RoF. My turrets cycle slowly compared to a real life aircraft carrier’s CIWS which fires 6,000 rounds a minute and shreds fast moving jets instantly.

Give a miner a battleship and before you can blink, the muppet will be fitting mining lasers.
Let me introduce you to China’s DF-21D and DF-26, designed to strike large naval vessels from long distances - Carrier Killers
Then you lose all the role specific benefits. There is only one ship where I mix weapons like that, and its due to a remarkable overlap between falloff for the Medium turret and optimal range for the Large turret. Nobody would expect a battleship to be so well able to cope with being kited. It’s lower DPS than all large turrets….but the configuration makes it well worth it. Not a fitting I’m going to give away 
It’s a common practice on the Gila for Abyssals.

Abyssal Gilas?
Are you sure you’re not thinking of rapid light missile launchers?
While the ammo fired is indeed small, the rapid light missile launcher is a medium-sized weapon system.

There are fits where people are using 3 rapid lights and 1 heavy. It’s not identical to fitting light turrets or launchers on a battleship, but it is mixing sizes.
T5 Abyss fit for a Gila. One Heavy Launcher and 3 Rapid Light Launchers on the same ship.

Heavy missile launchers and rapid lights are the same size weapon systems, FYI.
Both are cruiser-sized medium weapon systems.

Then I blame CCP and give up ever trying to understand this game. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to install a garage door on my apple cart so that I can shoot Christmas trees at marshmallows
Not a brotherhood of pilots having fun as much anymore but more of how much negs they can inflict.
