I'd suggest combining guns, beam weapons, black powder weapons, etc, into about 3 skills based on weapon configuration (as others have suggested on the forum)- Pistols- self-explanatory Long-Arms- as you described Heavy Weapons- rocket launchers, gatling guns, etc. I can't see there being that much difference in firing a pistol, a laser pistol and a flintlock pistol if they all have the same stance and hand position. Familiarity penalties would handle the difference in flight characteristics, handling recoil, etc.

The problem there is that buying Natural Sciences up to 19 would also cost only 4 points. Physics would have to be a technique for there to be any incentive to specialize.

And to muddy the waters, Parachuting would best be done with Aerobatics.

Artist, Performance, and Sleight of Hand are close to being super-skills with the added specialties. I do like the grouping you have though. I am still thinking on it but my first thought is that EH skills should be double the cost of a VH skill, rather than one step harder. I need to crunch the numbers some more. Hope this helps.
