You could still tweak the system to be this way if it were done correctly. You could make the steel fiber amount increase at a flat rate but in smaller amounts and then give rhino or other "tanky" frames a larger buff to their base armor stat. The base stats right now are restrained by the fact that making them too high would make mods scale too fast. If you sever this connection, you have more felxibility with base stats.

Also, this more applies to guns than frames. I don't mind certain stats to be % of base for frames. The weapons is where I think there are inherent problems with the % system.
