You really don't understand that 4 grenadiers is less than 6 conscripts?

Satchel are mess mostly due to bandaid solution that where used during creation.

On the other hand there is logic in their design.

Since AT satchels are an AT weapon they should not easily wipe enemy infantry thus the reduced damage.

On the other hand since the combine heavy damage and one shot engine damage they are considered "high risk high reward weapons" and thus can be punishing for the unit using it. The weapon fit the Penal role.

This is design decision and so No, friendly and enemy units should not take the same damage.

I personally do not like the design and I have suggested change but that is different story.

interesting find! i remember this came up quite a while ago in the grenade AoE comparison thread, but i always thought the damage multiplier would apply to all units, not just axis. this should by all means get standardized to either dealing full damage or the reduced amount to all squads, regardless of faction.
btw, according to the stats tab you posted it it should be 20% of the original damage, not just 20% less. that at least would explain why it seemingly does almost zero damage to the axis units in your test.

Now this indication that killing friendly infantry is intended and that issue vs okw infantry comes from the weapon and not from "secret axis modifier" as has been claimed in this thread.

I am not sure why insist on this, you have started a thread with the title: "Allied inf should also have dmg reduction to AT Satchel" implying that axis infantry have such a modifier.

My point is quite simple there a 95% chance that there is not such a modifier and if there is an issue it originated from the weapon and not the infantry.

Does that clarify what I have posted?
