Odd French church tech behavior — why?

The French church tech ships consulate grenadiers which automatically upgrades, and the visual change is purely visual, then it enables the training of regular grenadier which you’ll need to manually upgrade. But the latter also benefits from the same additional bonuses that the consulate grenadiers receive from the techs.

None of the other unit unlock techs does this. Why does it need such a complex system? What about simply shipping regular grenadiers and grant the veteran/guard upgrades for free?

It is easy to add the old guard skin change when upgrading the regular grenadier just like how all RG units work.

Yea but they don’t want all the Grens looking like the Old Guard, cause the Old Guard was a specific thing.

TBH, Old guard should be unlocked and not grenadiers for the french.
But that’s the same issue as with the carabiniere for the italians.

They should change the logic of the OLD GUARD church card, it should Directly Unlock the Old Guard in your Artillery Foundry instead of the Regular European Grenadier
