The wording of your post seems to heavily imply that I was associating the 5x with Health and Defense, which I clearly was not.

Hence my confusion as to the point of the post. No one was arguing the point you were addressing, and I, at least, have no misunderstanding of how the bonus works.

Objectively, Hotspot has very high H and D, and his weapon (or Rodimus') makes up for the lower attack on the base card while not sacrificing what makes Hotspot a valuable card - the fact that his H and D make him a very long-lived upper T2 card.
