It just looks incredibly awkward. The Tenno holds the weapon upright in their hand as if they were holding a spear:

 

 

This looks even worse when you use a top-heavy weapon such as Scindo or Fragor.

 

 

I think it would look a lot more natural if we changed it so that the weapon is titled back and resting upon the shoulder:

Focus creates this enormous "plasma sail" which pretty much always covers at least 33% (often 50%!) of the screen as you move around. I can't see anything to the left of my Warframe in the screenshot.
