1) you cannot get rid of APM in a real-time game. Fast clicking will always be an advantage.

2) complexity itself does not increase depth. Depth comes from decisions. For example:

* things like infinite module stacking would probably not increase depth by much since you'd do that only if you were already doing some comm-only build.

* attack speed module would be only slightly different to damage booster. Effectively it's just another +dps module and it doesn't really matter which you choose.

* reducing decloak range is a no-brainer for cloaking comms and useless for others. Again, not really creating a decision.

* decloak aura would be a new mechanic which potentially obsoletes light unit screening. Adds complexity but could reduce depth.

3) adding depth to commanders is not necessarily wanted either. If a lot of the decision making revolves around the comm the RTS part of the game becomes less relevant.

again,
even
if
some
of
these
ideas
are
alright
the
reasoning
is
useless.
"Adds
fun":
subjective.
"Adds
depth":
see
above.
"Adds
flavor":
does
not
compute.
