She gets hit a fair bit, Keroko. Even Scaglietti managed to catch her, and hit her with a shot.

Like rogues. Don't get me wrong, Nanoha does have superior firepower, but not in this attack. And the numbers (or rather letters, in this case) prove it.

Well, whether or not it proves it depends on how reliable Nanoha Wiki is (thanks for the link).
Regular Wiki is infamous for not always being reliable. Is Nanoha Wiki maintained by the makers of the Nanoha anime, or by Nanoha fans like you and I?
Finally... what's the rationale given for ranking Phalanx Shift over Divine Buster?
Note: Why did you edit out your offer to agree to disagree? I'm genuinely curious there.

This isn't a typical fantasy setting; magical ranged combat is the norm and melee is a relatively rare specialization.

Hhmmm... Signum, Vita, Vivio, Subaru, most of the Numbers IIRC... are all much more melee fighters than magical ranged specialist. Melee certainly doesn't seem like a rare specialization to me.
Heck, of the four young protagonists in training in StrikerS, only Teana is a magical ranged specialist, and her magical blasts are fairly weak in comparison to other magical blasts.
