This is a good point (and I do the same).

However if the armour is the kind of Ultra tech 'looks and wears like clothing' kind of stuff. It hard to then justify the reaction penalty. I.e if it's light and thin enough to not warrant layer pens then it may well be light and thin enough to not register as armour to the observer.
