I'm open to suggestions. How I tend to interpret it, is a cooldown is used for non automatics, as those weapons have much less ammo with considerable delays between firing shots, with the cooldown being the fancy name for the delay, the time it takes to fire again. However, automatics have little delay, and rate of fire would indicate just that, a constant rate which is only separated by a split second.

Then again, they are referred to cooldowns in game. I can change it if you want.
