Please, stop comparing damage if you do not understand it. You cannot compare Soviet and OKW damage numbers. You cannot compare Ostheer and Soviet damage numbers. You always have to take squad sizes into consideration.
Now, let's take a look at how it really is:
57.11 57.11 48.22 29.70 21.14 14.90 9.26 4.22 Sturmpio squad
17.17 16.20 12.45 09.90 08.07 06.37 5.03 3.95 Conscript squad
You are accusing me of not knowing multiplication. No matter, the numbers supported my argument. In a straight up gun fight the conscripts lose at every range, period. While it is a nice thing to theory craft that the StrumPio's will be on the move this is not always the case. Wrapping price per unit around it is very weak justification of their early game performance. Forcing conscript squads off of the field while the StrumPio's cap is their return on investment. Time = resources. This whole thing is very similar back to when Pioneers were over buffed.
Excuse me while I do some more math and compare StrumPio's to all Soviet infantry to see how they stack up.
