Many people will run things other than Chiraneau. Even with Chiraneau, there is a lot of advantage to having Sensor Jammers.

Many times, Chiraneau doesn't focus, because he has that built in crit. This means that he's either target locking, exposing, or boosting (because PS 10 chiraneau with engine upgrade is terrifying). If your opponent target locks, then you can feel free to turn a hit into a focus, so long as he has another focus icon. This will mean that he can turn ONE focus into a crit, and he will have to reroll the focus that he rolled naturally. If he gets a hit, you've lost no ground, if he gets a focus or a blank, you've dodged a shot. If he exposes or boosts, then you can just look to see if he has a focus icon already. If there is a focus, then you turn a hit into a focus, and if there isn't, then you don't, to avoid the crit.

You still have nice things that you can do, and you have ways to avoid getting hit. Just don't do it when you will only be feeding your opponent a crit, and the jammer can be a nice investment.
