The only consequence of the disability to unlock those skills that i see is that you have to re-buy the mechs in order to unlock something which you might have forgotten to unlock just to re-sell them afterwards which is pure nuisance and doesnt contribute to enjoying the game, no?
So i guess unlocking skills on mechs you dont currently own if you have the XP is a feature yet to be implemented ?
