I really don't think psi-tech solves the high tech gear equivalent problem. It narrows the gap, but more is necessary if you want a game in which psi-commandos duke it out against space marines.

And considering you run into the same problem with non-psi abilities, I prefer solutions that address all of them at once, if possible.
