Level Up (A5E) Do Biting Zephyr maneuvers work with Crossbows?

[Faolyn]

Building characters for fun, have made a crossbow-using rogue. Some of the BZ maneuvers don't make logical sense with such a weapon, or at least not with my understanding of crossbows. For instance, can I really fire two bolts with Doubleshot, or use a reaction to load the crossbow and fire it for a Countershot or Quickdraw, or even make it fire longer distances with Farshot, when it relies on machinery instead of musclepower?

(Substitute firearms for crossbows and the question remains the same.)

I'm willing to ignore reality here in favor of Cool, but I'm curious as to what the RAI here is.

I mean, doubleshot doesn't actually make sense on a bow either, but these are the Hollywood maneuvers, not the realist maneuvers. (Don't get me wrong, I hate when people say 'realism' doesn't matter, but it is really equally silly in this case).

Clearly those archers were under the effects of a ring of film editing, so I don't know if that counts.
