Like I said, mate. So there's balance throughout the arsenal. No point in having one especially strong rifle. That's all you would ever use. I mean, sure, the pistol may be strong, but it's clearly not my choice on Legendary. I almost never use it in a huge LAN, and so on.
And if you were in the game, saying pretend, you could accidentally drop your rifle... Or it runs out of ammo. You'll have to resort to your sidearm. I think you'd be much more thankful that the scientists up at ONI, or UNSC thought enough of you to think of putting more power into the pistol. They were thinking of you, mate. I'm sure they weren't going:
"The Rifle is strong. It's perfect, Gentlemen!"
"What about if it runs out of ammo?"
"I didn't mean perfect perfect. Nothing is perfect!"
"I think we should do something about the pistol."
"What about it?"
"It's so weak! Not enough punch to kill a Covie."
"..."
"What are we gonna do?"
"Laugh at those poor, poor souls?"
"Lunch break?"
"Run away?"
