Yes, I know about that, but it's a really unsatisfying substitute. It's far less efficient than the medic for three reasons:

1. It's more expensive, and sometimes you just don't need a dropship when all you want is a medic.

2. It's harder to keep the medevac close to your marines. The auto-heal doesn't seem quite as intelligent as it is for medics, and since the medevac hovers over marines, it's harder for you to micromanage marines.

3. It's much easier for the enemy to kill compared to the medic because it doesn't stay as far behind the line and it's big.
