My point is not to make Mercs better, but to make Mercs scalable and worth a damn for more than a brief window of the game, particularly after they get hit with a nerf that requires you pay a substantial monthly upkeep which threats their value on base defense in your production facilities.
Mercs are items... items cannot be made scalable, they don't have the capability to improve. That's a game engine fact.
You can completely redo them as new soldier type and make them scalable... but again the game would then be renamed to MercenarieZ. If you don't find them useful enough, don't use them... I have never used them either, just like dozens of other things I find weak. There's too many things in the game, they cannot all be equal, some must be weaker, some stronger.
