The reason i like the extra CC is that i know im gonna get into combat with blobs, have no dedicated CC unit and lack ATSKNF. 31 attacks on the charge is pretty nasty from a unit with a 3+ save i think.
As its just an upgrade i could always bolt them on later when i start to come up against higher model counts.
The whirlwind brings some high strength ap3 to the table for taking on heavier units but i take your point. Maybe bring a contemptor mortis or retool my rapiers to laser destroyers. The former costs money. The latter saves me points but i loose the quad mortars and their -1 ld pinning.
I am also aware of the sheer number of marines in the campaign so i like the ap3 on the scorpius.
So many choices.
