In such a contest, even small advantages can be deciding factors. Can you name anything Hal could do to specifically exploit Bill? Even if it is just blasts and not constructs, that's something. Though I still think it could in fact be constructs as well, though I of course can't point to a specific incident because Bill hasn't fought anyone who produces GL-style constructs. The hammer's capacity to absorb different types of energy has few limits though, so I think it's certainly possible (though you're correct that it may not always be in character for BRB).
Nobody said its not a close fight. He can seperate bill from stormbreaker and spam him with constructs strong enough to ko The General.
