Twinned Threat (Ex)
While wielding at least two one-handed melee weapons, when you successfully attack and deal damage with one of those weapons, you gain a +2 insight bonus to damage with all other one-handed melee weapons you wield until the end of your turn. This bonus increases by 1 for every 4 soldier levels you have. Additionally, if you are wielding two identical one-handed melee weapons and make a full attack using both, increase the DC of those weapons’ critical hit effects by 1 until the end of your turn.
It does not.

Bummer, it wouldn't be optimal but it would be a neat non-ring of fangs "punching' build

There are plenty of advanced one-handed punching weapons. Painclaws, Heat-Amp Gauntlets, Electrovore Gloves, Resonant Gauntlets...
The high-tech two-fisted punching build can exist in many flavors.

Yeah, I just wish I could use this weapon family. I like the idea of building of the charge with multiple hits. This was also a weapon that struck me as odd to have the operative quality.

To be fair, Operatives are the class that can get the most use out of it since they can get up to 4 attacks, which is something not even soldiers can do.
That depends a lot on level, weapon used, and ease of hitting your target. Quad attack can be better, but definitely not at all times.

Circumstances, too. If you are dealing with full concealment or Mirror Images or something, you're better off making as many attacks as possible.

Special Abilities
--------------------
Partner Bond (Ex) A dragonkin can form a permanent bond with one willing non-dragonkin creature. Once this bond is made, a dragonkin cannot form another partner bond unless its current partner dies. A dragonkin and its partner can communicate with each other as if they both had telepathy with a range of 100 feet. In combat, when a dragonkin is within 30 feet of its partner, both creatures roll initiative checks separately and treat the higher result as the result for both of them.Hero Lab and the Hero Lab logo are Registered Trademarks of LWD Technology, Inc.

Melee returning throwing yellow star nova lance +16 (3d4+18 E & F; critical wound [DC 19]; powered, reach, thrown [20 ft.])
Space 10 ft.; Reach 10 ft. (20 ft. with yellow star nova lance)
Your reach with the lance appears to be wrong, I think it should be 15' rather than 20'. Reach weapons in Starfinder only add 5' to your natural reach, rather than doubling it as in Pathfinder.
Creatures that take up more than 1 square of space typically have a natural reach of 10 feet or more. Such a creature usually can make an attack of opportunity against you if you approach
it, because you must enter and move within the range of its reach before you can attack it. You do not provoke this attack of opportunity if you take a guarded step to approach it. When wielding a weapon with the reach special property, such creatures extend their reach by 5 feet.
But maybe I'm missing some gear or ability that furthe extends this.
I think the only things that further extend reach past the 5' increase are the Lunge feat, and being a high level vanguard.

I think I've mentioned this more this once in this thread, it's an error on Herolab's side. I know the reach is 15'.

I'm digging it!
I've already had plenty of fun with my Called Throwing Holy Opportunistic Yellow Star Plasma Lance, so I can imagine you've had some good times with your version.
It is convenient not to really have to worry about purchasing a secondary weapon. It's not always perfect, since the range is kind of short but it works in a pinch. Also I usually pick up some sort of ranged weapon off someone I kill during each adventure, so I use it then temporarily.*
