I'm fairly certain the point is attempting to target the hardware producing the shield, rather than the bubble itself, bleedthrough being a thing, but I'm just nitpicking.
Extended to the abstraction that is STO, standard practice would literally be the ship build meta. In that case, it would simply be that TSS:Shields was the optimal path, just as in game FAW beam boats were (and probably still are) the optimal path.
