I'm not a 100% sure I understand this. IIRC it was bombing spaceships hovering above a planet dropping bombs into the atmosphere, correct? (Totally possible that I'm misremembering!) In that case using gravity would be absolutely fine.
I could be wrong but I could've sworn that while they were fighting above a planet, they were still "dropping" bombs on a ship below them.
So if the rebels have a ship that works only if you happen to be fighting above a planet with a ship below you, that's even sillier!
Oh, the bombs were meant for another ship, not the planets surface? Then indeed gravity makes little sense, or at least it's a very straightforward and uninspired port of the concept of bomber planes.
But I guess they wanted it to fit in with everything else... :(
