What usually gets somewhat standardized is the standard performance of a unit.

Afterwards every unit gets some ability goodies according to the faction's design.

Its not really that simple on 4v4 match, GrW 34 counter barrage is vet 1. they can flare u 1st and barrage your mortar before you can counter them :)

And you talking about mid to late game counter :)

IMO on early game + flares + standardized performance it is so hard to counter 6 men pm-41 on that early stage

Why does the faction I play not have the cool things that factions I play against have?
Because the factions you play has cool things that faction you play against don't have.

The counter barrage minimizes micro and let's you focus on something else. While the power balance of these secondary abilities can of course be discussed, you present it highly biased. Also, as sad as it is: 4v4 matches are not a good reference for balancing units because the whole design of the game does not scale well (starting as early as map size etc).
In smaller modes the flare is good, but also a mun drain. There's more space to maneuver, and less unit density, which means that your flare will give you less information and is therefore not as much worth it as in dense 4v4s where you're guaranteed to discover something.

Rifle nades for conscripts when?

Also, use superior range counter barrage.

Git gud mate.
Move your units or push against the zis. Axis have luch and snipers and long range rifle nades.
Zis is going to get nerfed hard this patch.

Or simply play more allies 4v4 if you think this is OP, try and pull that off ..
