Look at vehicles like the polish tks or the post war german wiesel. Very small vehicles with limited arm and armament.
In my use case, I'm looking at absolute lowest costs. 3.2 IC for a medium tankette. That is only 64 IC/sup sink, which is only about twice the sink of cavalry, and 1/4th of what it used to be at 240. And your IC bleed factor is only 9.6, where cav are 2-4 times that. Depending on the levels of resistance you encounter, the tankettes will pay for themselves.

I mean if you have them via old models or captured equipment, you might as well put them to some kind of use.
But I can't imagine producing them is a favorable tradeoff compared to just using cav otherwise. Garrison casualties are trivial if you either a) use collaboration or b) the area doesn't have much/any industry so you just set it to local police force and ignore it.
I don't have NSB, so maybe you can make absolute garbage with very low production cost + high hardness that's cost-competitive enough to be viable (edit: it seems so per above). I can't imagine it's making a big difference compared to just slapping cavalry though. I guess it depends how much resistance you usually get like you say, but w/o NSB it's hard to justify.
