The rules for telescopic vision and for optics are identical except telescopic vision's acc bonus is not expressly limited by the Acc of the weapon.
Actually it does on p. B364: "Your combined bonus from all targeting systems (scopes, sights, computers, etc.) cannot exceed the weapon’s base Accuracy. "

Telescopic Vision acts as a scope (B92).

Telescopic Vision acts as a scope (B92).
It says it "functions as a telescopic sight:" in that it adds Acc. Not that it is a targeting system. Now you might think that means it is limited to the Acc of the weapon, and I would agree with you.

My entire point was that the rules for Telescopic Vision exactly matches the rules for optics, except that it doesn't expressly on B92 limit the bonus to Acc.
