We can ignore logic and still use real world principles to ensure a consistency of design. Good luck turning a minigun into a spear; or a battle axe into a semi-automatic pistol.

Caliber is important as well, because it tells us (broadly) how much punch a shot from the weapon packs. Ruby and Blake are fielding different caliber firearms; while Yang uses an entirely different class of ammunition in shotgun shells.
