Default Why the heck are samurai\'s so high resource?

I just don't see the justification. Without shields, they seem to die en masse to almost everything. Which is a problem when you can't even mass them. Sure they're incredibly gold efficient but I thought that gold = skill of a unit while resources = the type of armor. I also understand that shields would be very unthematic but for warriors that are supposed to be the epitome of Japanese swordsmanship, their stats are sure crummy. I'm not sure I can find any justification for NOT recruiting just pure samurai archers. Oh and the occasional ashigaru spam. Any other Jomon players running into this sort of problem?
