I haven't read most of the replies on this topic, but my issue with scans is that my Min scout's profile (w/o dampening) is already low enough that there is an allowable risk in how few suits can detect it.

Speed, profile, cpu/pg, slots and weapon access. The blatant self-service when supposedly discussing "balancing" in any thread that attempts to do so is disgusting. I understand where you're coming from in terms of the biased statements of many "balance" discussions. It is kind of funny that you post your reply after I point out my disappointment in the fact that when I use my scout suit (my primary suit) I slip under most passive scans, with other scouts being the primary group to spot me. Honestly, a logi at least should be able to catch my undamped Min scout.
Also, the binary (yes/no, true/false) nature of the scan is harmful to gameplay, there should be at least a 5% chance of getting caught on radar no matter what the profile and precision of the two suits (or 1-16 suits, and one scanner involved); as well as at least a 5% chance of avoiding a scan.

Make it 2x precision enhancers and the Logi can even scan them while cloaked. Make it 3x precision and AM/MN scouts will need 2x damps to avoid the Logi scans while not cloaked. Sorry, I concede that my information may be outdated and wrong.
Last I checked was a while ago (before cloaks were implemented), and I only really checked with a Min logi. The numbers may well have changed since then, but at the time I was deciding whether or not to invest in precision enhancers, and after doing the math, found extremely little reason to do so.
