I don't think high-acc weapons would lose value. Consider that the speeds are all roughly the same from bot to bot, and LR still has a primarily defensive metagame. Also, the two things that gain in speed from these rule swaps (hovers and tanks) still get mashed by high-acc weapons. Hovers because it's guarenteed damage against the fastest targets, and tanks because backpedalling is still the #1 tactic in LR.
At the risk of over-generalizing, these rules basically turn the game into NX/NB. This is opposed to PACT/US rules, which strive to make the game closer to SL.
EDIT: Just realized I said "make the game closer to LR" which makes no real sense. Fixed!
