Yea, Outmaneuver simply drops their agility, so they can't re-modify the die or pull other shenanigans. Some ships simply won't get a roll (e.g. Falcon, and as a bonus it denys the C-3P0 synergy).

Arc-dodging aces get a lot of use out of it too, since they expect to be outside the target's arc unless it can out-arc-dodge them. It also works better, as stated above, if you have target locks through FCS or allies. I don't think Outmaneuver is as cut-and-dry underwhelming as you say.

And not all battles are one-on-one, as said above, or played in empty space. Asteroids and other ships play a lot into forcing the enemy into an exposed position.
