When I coded in free weapon switching I got fried with a puny former human with a RL, and in another game even a BFG. Bad idea.

Awww, that sounds like fun.
Potman:
I think I'd like that anyway, but then again, I've played Nethack for six years and got used to weak monsters carrying Wand of Death.
Edit: Besides, a former human with a BFG sounds a lot less deadly than, say, Baron of Hell with a BFG.
BDR:
By the time rocket launchers and BFGs show up, it shouldn't be *that* difficult to take out things like former humans within one or two rounds (especially now that lower difficulties have been given the experience boost making it possible to hit clvl 7 by level 11 on ITYTD). Granted, a baron with a BFG would probably be tough even for a god like Blade (and impossible for us mere mortals). Perhaps this weapon switching should be restricted to the former foos? I somewhat recall at least the hell knights being notably not-so-smart in the original Doom, and this intelligence would grant former foos a measure of respect they'd not normally get in later levels.
Potman:
But what about an Excited Room (or whatever) on level 2 with a rocket launcher and former humans? That's happened to me at least once.
