The Jackson probably does need a nerf in a stat or two but it isn't dangerously OP.

I've only tested this in the past with two PGren squads, one with focus fire set to on, and one with set to off, and the squad with focus fire set to off was winning by a large margin, when it was squad vs squad.

Conversely, when it was 1 model vs 1 model, I didn't notice any difference.

Your testbed is much better than the one I used, so it would be interesting to get hold of more data to know about how this works precisely.

Not sure I agree with conclusion thou, for 1% difference. You are not taking into consideration the affect it creates when more entities are involved or when you firing at very high accuracy or the affect of other factors like aoe weapons grenades, flamer and...

Because they now function exactly the same?

No.
Think of your example. The unit with smaller size depend on the shot missed to survive but with the "re-roll" every shot missed get another chance, the unit with armor get hit more often but get damage only some times so there are less "re-rolls".

this setting is only valid if can burst is true.

focus all the hit check on the primary target, Instead of randomly pick from the scatter area

Let me try to explain this with an example:
A unit with ST44 fire on squad with TS 1 and armor 2.

It has 50% chance to do damage.

The same unit fire on unit with TS 0.5 and armor 1.

It has 75% chance to do damage.

High accuracy units firing on shock troops are less effective because hitting does not mean that they will do damage. It is the reason why R.E used to be better at fighting Kubels than riflemen.
