Sure, you might get shot down, but if you went into the endless N1k loop and just started spraying, you are bound to hit a few planes before you go down. Lame.
K/D, K/S, and Hit% should be weighted more than K/T.
The beauty of the currrent system is that, in the "death blossom" scenario, you might get a high k/t + k/s (doubtful,) but you'll take a pounding in hit percentage, and probably k/d as well, meaning that this blatantly stupid tactic doesn't help, and might even hurt.
K/T appears to me to be the most direct measurement of aggressiveness -- something we're told is good in a fighter pilot. Obviously, it's not the only thing, but the others are rewarded as well.
