Humanoid Pretenders are too expensive

Lowering the cost isn't sufficient to have a real gain? Why not? Having more points isn't a gain?

I believe the point is not that they are too weak compared to others, but that there is actually a very limited set of Pretenders that most competitive players choose from instead of being able to use the variety of Pretenders that exist. So it has nothing to do with 'weak' and everything to do with 'usability'.
