I agree.

Soldiers in Outwitters are the center of the game. Soldiers are probably the most influential unit in the game due to the amount they are spawned and used. (Yes, that is up to debate because of specials, but I am leaving those out right now.)
Then you have polar opposites: the runner and the heavy. The runner, high mobility, low attack, good vision. The Heavy, low mobility, high attack, low vision. These units are most effective when accompanied by the soldier.

The idea of the heavy is to not be able to take every thing out, it is simply to compliment the soldier's actions and movements to provide defense and close range.

This change would take away the importance of the soldier and would simply complicate the games as boosted heavies would primarily then control the game board instead of soldiers.

In addition, 4hp soldier is the only true defense against the heavy. (That and being able to move/see one more space.) Taking away that defense will render the soldier useless.
