All have higher defence than offence. So I really think that defence is supposed to be easier to get than offence (see also the emo skill giving +5 defence for 9 turns, compared to the troll skill giving 3 offence for 4 turns. Oh and the emo skill heals ego as well)

The upgrades cost the same though. Also, if defense is supposed to be that much worse then why are the troll items so expensive? Especially the club. In my experience, the club was overall worse than the tiger.

Additionally, defense CAN be better than offense, point for point. It just has to be in certain forums. Losing 5 defense to the FBO attack in the furry forum doubled their damage. I doubt +5 offense would make me kill the forum twice as fast. The metal forum also seems to be kind of low in the damage department. Defense just gets worse as the forum damage goes up because it’s subtractive, and offense always modifies your turns to kill a thread by a ratio.

The way they work isn’t really the problem, the problem is just that clbumes seem to get shoehorned into specific builds, so any difference just makes the gameplay kind of dumb when you have to fight a forum that your equipment is really bad for, considering you have no choice whatsoever.
