Why did they make Guncannon so badass in this episode?

(episode 16 of the original series)

The way he came out holding that Zaku is so badass...

Like, seriously, if Amuro piloted the Guncannon more often, WhiteBase alone could win the war against Zeon in just a few days. That RxMid78-2 clearly steals the shine from the Guncannon, which is unfair!!

Of the original trio of Earth Federation mobile suits, you can see that the Guncannon was made to be the best, but the youngest brother in the family shouted louder and got all the shine.

But honestly, I think this gives Guncannon a great charm, he is modest and doesn't care about fame. That's why it's the best Mobile Suit ever made and probably the best Mecha ever invented by humanity.

All hail Guncannon
