Regarding the UKF medics:

The UKF medic squad was a good try by the balance team, but it has not worked out. As long as UKFs main healing still comes from IS, there is little reason for that unit to exist. The pyro upgrade is nice and all, but very optional in the end and people still go for the healing upgrade.
Make the medic squad too good and it replaces even a potential FOB, make it too bad and no one uses it. But at the moment I don't see much of a niche for that squad. It's meant as supplemental healing because balance team expected less healing sections. The issue is: no one needs supplemental healing.
Either it takes too long and you are better off with a FOB or the healing upgrade, or the squad heals quickly and replaces both of these. Additionally, the squad is very clunky to use which would be addressed by Sander's suggestion. But this suggestion basically turns it into a worse ambulance. And from what we see with USF, ambulances are most of the time parked in the base anyway. For base healing, UKF can already build the FOB for an okayish price. For forward healing, UKF already has the IS upgrade. Despite suggesting the same as Sanders some weeks ago, I now have to admit that don't see the niche anymore for the UKF medic squad. UKF's current healing options can handle all the needs already and fit to the factions design, so why not work with that?

very little sense though

Well yes. But previously the only way you got something out of it was if you banked all resources for 2 heavies, bought one, drove it to the front to let it die instantly and then are able to re-buy it slightly quicker.

If you know focus on heavy builds you might be able to bridge the gap better until your new heavy comes out instead of being potentially forced into other tanks and break your build.

That's actually the first time in CoH2 history this bulletin makes any sense at all.

I agree with OP (and Sander in different threads):

The next patch if we get one should focus on cleaning up a lot of the dirt that has been piling up bit by bit through the years: text strings, some bug fixing whereever needed, consistency regarding abilities and the general communication of the game with the player.

There are so many things that got overlooked (like the stuka 0 penetration that is currently being discussed) or not touched at all because of more pressing issues. And veterancy is quite a big part of this, both regarding requirements and bonusses.

The only balance things that should get touched are probably OST grenadiers and USF late game artillery (not sure abiut the last one though). I think the rest of the game is fine for the most part and can wait with tweaks.

I'll make a more detailed response later on. Overall these would be very good changes.

However I am not sure about some of the OKW ones. For example the OKW P4: Currently there is a clear trade off: You get a stock tank with stats like a premium medium, but have to pay more and wait a minute longer. Now I understand that you are directly trying to target this. But in the end OKW gets a normal medium but, unlike all other factions, would be able to make it scale better into the late game. There is no trade off anymore. You get a normal medium tank "early" AND get the premium version a bit later. Also it would make the faction even closer to OST, which I find generally not that great. Maybe other players can elaborate if OKW really has such big issues due to a late medium tank, from my experience it was not too bad but I mostly rely on 2v2 and 3v3 games.

Second: The OKW BGHQ tech rework. While the idea is very similar to what happened to USF teching, it would bake OKW teching a real clutter. Build the truck first, then build the BGHQ, then medics and upgrade. Then you build the next truck, select base Schwerer HQ, upgrade that one and finally you get tanks. That's actually getting close to OST levels in terms of clicking to get somewhere.
