You need to read the FAQ for The Inquisitor, which is on the same page for convenient look up. Its wording is very specific, to eliminate most effects.

The distinction is whether you're testing "the range of the attack" vs "the range between two ships". Very few effects test attack range directly (mainly range combat bonuses); most effects test the range between the ships during the attack, which the inquisitor does not affect.

In general, if in doubt, assume The Inquisitor doesn't affect it. Unless otherwise specified, the only effects are preventing the enemy's range 3 range combat bonus, and always getting his range 1 range combat bonus. And Autothrusters don't work against him.
