In my experience 75% resistance just isn't enough. 75% SR won't be enough to protect against Wrathful Skies. 75% CR won't protect against chill and Breath of Winter. 75% FR won't protect against heat aura effects of Abysians and devils.

Exactly, so they would not be "the obvious choice" all the time, instead you would have to mix and match your supporting troops correctly instead of mechanical men for all occasions.

Its thematic too, since one assume that fire hot enough, or cold cold enough, or sufficient wattage WOULD damage a mechanical being made of metal...

Of course mechanical men have counters, as mentioned, but they arent easy ones, and they sure arent enough to discourage everyone from fielding armies of them in the late game to support their battlefield spells.
