Not OP but I would argue that in large scale warfare, how quickly you can get your troops to sufficiently handle their weapons is one of the most important qualifiers to rate a weapon. So early firearms were superior to bows because you could train your soldiers faster on them than on bows. And I think that is what the high IQ wojak means to represent, too.

OP's meme implies that logistics was not the factor, though.
