On it being a trade off, or balanced, by having less AR/weight... The ONLY reason a Heavy Armored person would take that perk is for better armor. By this point it's safe to say anyone with THAT good of armor likely has the perk that makes armor no longer slow him down, so the saved 10 pounds, besides being insignificant, are pretty worthless. It's also fairly safe to say the player is not under the illusion he's a master sneaker anymore, and losing those 10 pounds won't make him Hattori Hanzo. There aren't even dragon weapons to offset the loss of the perk.
The only REAL benefit of getting the dragon armor perk, as a heavy armor wearer, is you get to look snazzy wearing dragon armor. Why is the helm a different color, though?
Here's hoping the numbers are, somehow, misleading/wrong.
