        What about Lictors? Tyranid Warriors? Ogryns?
Dreadnoughts? I know you cover these later on, but they're all about
the same size in 'reality' (i.e. WH40k), so why should they be
transportable while the units you mention are not?. Seems like you're
going by how big the models for these units were in SM/TL, when it's
fairly obvious that the scale in SM/TL was extremely screwed up.

Unfortunately, I disagree here. If you go by fluff and pictures, the scale in WH40k is screwed up and SM/TL was a bit more accurate.
