Why are the freespawns supposed to have disadvantages other than their near uselessness in combat? It's not as though removing the upkeep on such troops would make the nation overpowered, because you can't use them with any effect against elite troops anyways. I'm currently experiencing zero losses in matches where 60 F9/W9 LA Mictlan Rain warriors fight against 100+ LA R'Lyeh freespawn. It's also not as though people would dismiss the freespawn unless they absolutely had to, as you will need 10 to 1 odds or better to ensure wins when using them.
