youre saying cons PPSH being inferior to volk mp40 is justified because the unit is balanced within their respective faction and the units that they fight against... this is basically a variant of the "flavor" or "faction design" argument in its expanded form...
Yes and I have given you multiple specific examples of that design, which you have continually ignored. Cons are more survivable, cheaper to reinforce, they have oorah. All 3 of those things directly apply to helping with use of the ppsh upgrade
im saying this is a terrible argument because this can be used to justify almost every bad design or underperforming unit in the game by simply saying "the unit is designed to underperform because flavor"...
But nobody is saying that, or anything close to it. I am pointing out to you specific ways in which the design of conscripts benefits the ppsh upgrade. Nobody is saying "cons are designed to suck, and that's okay".... No one has said anything close to that
