What is the reaction modifier for Unarmed?

[Slider2k]

Does going unarmed affect reaction (like some weapons do)?

This is completely "self-theoretical"
(( and apologies if is a bit messy also. )):

Most likely it's the reaction / reflex-stat at the "purest-form".

I.E. whereas weapons would reduce(?) the "base-reaction", having no weapons or anything else modifying "Reaction" makes the reaction / reflex-stat being used at fullest.
Or it indeed also can be opposite, as in having "lighter" gun (pistols and shotgun(s) / carbines) makes the "token" actually "anticipating / blitzing" thus increasing the reaction-stat.
Alternatively you could just give everyone a ("basic"-)rifle and it (seemingly) would just be same as running around unarmed.

 

This also to assume the following formula is still the same:

Reflexes x (% of TU left after last turn) ) x weapon modifier

Which I found here:

On a side-note:
A good thing about reaction-shot-system is that you can also use "time-units / action-points" also alone to the reaction-shots considering how heavily "TUs" affect the reaction-shot-chances
(well assuming you'd want to train some soldiers to become "un-armed" that is; they still need to perform reaction / overwatch-shots themselves in order train "reflex-stat"; "dodging / reflex-save / overwatch-denying" is not enough to train the stat (at least, not in the current version of the game)).

(( I am aware that a "simple-answer" became "super-long-winded", but I just wanted to make sure I was as thorough as possible with hopefully correct info / data. ))
