Woah, there.
Your simulations seem to be very biased! You've got battles with armor vs no protection!

Compare CA to the Walmart armor.
CA 1: 100hp in 30KT.
WA 1: 90hp in 30KT.
WA 2: 105hp in 30KT.
WA 3: 120hp in 30KT.

Get regular armor for a fraction of the research cost, and get way more hitpoints!

Crystalline armor's advantage only appears once you've got at least one shield generator in the mix, to make use of the crystalline effect.
