If you look at the various divisions and compare their income, you can see phase C income seems to be valued more then phase A and B income. Which if you dont think about it, makes sense, considering that phase C is double the length.
In practice though, this is a huge issue for slower/phase C heavy divisions. Games can easily and often be decided by the end of phase B, and even end outright by late phase B/Early phase C. Additionally, the last few minutes of phase C income have a far smaller effect on the outcome of the game then all previous income ticks. (Sometimes none at all)
Considering the current consensus is that divisions that do well in phase A are generally stronger (2e being the strongest example, regardless of their opening rush, they are quite powerful in A and fairly strong in B, often scoring enough of a early advantage that a comeback is far too slow to turn the tides) This seems like a relevant issue.
Side note; Its kind of a slap in the face that 2e almost gets the same tank that the 3rd get, but for 30 cheaper. (Sherman 75)
