They can also take extra time, which the human eye generally cannot do.

Well, the human brain can take extra time to study a scene, so it probably events out in terms of bonuses...
Would it be realistic enough for the sensor design rules to just say you can trade off night vision and telescopic vision levels at 1-1 at TL7-8 while designing the sensor, but at TL9+ the same sensor can electronically switch between them each turn?
