Why can't I mix and match heat sinks? Let's say I have 15 regular heat sinks already, and I've got a bunch of open slots on my mech but only 1 ton free, why can't I use that last ton to throw on 1 double heat sink? As these are actual items that take up slots, I don't see why this isn't in already unless there's some sort of bug that stops you from doing this.. if so then that needs to be fixed!

Not allowed in TT Battletech, but oh wait, in TT Battletech a Double Heatsink= 2 Single heatsinks, but in MWO it equals 1.4 single heatsinks. Well, ya got me. MWO, PGI, allow us to mix and match Heatsinks, you can't call Battletech TT anymore on Heatsinks as a reason not too.
DHS 1.4 is ridiculous. There has to be a more balanced solution. One that prevents Jenner Deathstars, but allows Assaults to get more cooling from DHS than Single Heatsinks. Right now I can run 34-36 singles on my Awesome and get more cooling and a better config than I can from 20 DHS. So backwards. It makes no sense at all.

We're playing MWO, not Table Top anyway 
I just find it silly the way it's set up now. They should just both be items you can buy straight up from the market. Not only under 'upgrades'.
Just curious, do they really even read these?

they tried DHS at 2.0 and as soon as you equipped them you could laser boat and NEVER overheat..... that is why they are 1.4

Assaults almost always get more heat dissipation from SHS than DHS because they always have the tonnage and not the space.
