Same Difference
And I personally say frequence, because you listen to 1023 AM Radio, where the 1023 is the frequency.

Maybe it has something to do with the amount of energy needed to make the laser work at the different wavelength?

There's no difference in meaning between the two, so they can be swapped in your sentance and not change it at all. Also, -3 points for forgetting your SI unit.
All offers void where prohibited, but especially in Quebec.

Also you may want to give a note about requiring spinal mounts for DE class ships.

This was asked a long time back. The answer that Mecron gave was that the higher-tech lasers have issues firing at the super high speeds that are required to make an effective point defense weapon. The unstated reason is that with one type of laser PD, you don't really need any other ones, since the benefits of one type over another would be pretty much lost.

Yeah I guessed something along those lines, also it'd make there be 6+ PDS weapons instead of two in the weapons select. But I'd thought I'd ask anyway.
Could just say anything more advanced than red lasers are too massive for the PDS mount motors.
And I honestly did type wavelength and then pressed backspace and typed freqency. I'm a BS in Physics so I know that wavelength, frequency, and energy per photon are all the same measure.

Less expensive, just like how a dreadnought packed with green lasers will be quite a bit cheaper than a dread packed full of other stuff.

There area couple of different cannon weapons in the full game, but in the demo the plasma cannon is the end of the line (besides the branch-off to torpedoes)
