A small correction:

"Armor divisors on the Innate Attack advantage" and "Hardened on the Damage Resistance advantage". The game doesn't use a stepping function, it just only provides prices for those steps because increased Armor Divisor is definitely a function of diminishing returns, and someone had to pick something for levels.

It's quite possible to get an armor divisor of 4 or 6 on an attack by targeting Chinks in Armor (AD2) with an AD 2 or AD 3 attack, for one example.
