There is deliberation behind these decisions. Jay Biebs has mentioned the decision not to make a backpack part of the starter kit more than once. At start of game, inventory decisions are meant to be difficult. The choice later of whether to carry another grenade or a stack of batteries is meant to be difficult, with potential consequences for choosing incorrectly.
Also, frankly, I rarely take grenade damage (and I suck, at least at shooting. I am told that my movement and tactics are good sometimes, so maybe not there).
When you do take grenade damage it's because:
If you're dying to Fuse grenades a lot, it's because you are bunkered with no room to maneuver, and he can unload on you. A BR is not the game type where you want to put your back to a wall with no way out.
I take it you havent met a fuse with alterator, spitfire and 20 grenades yet. I actually meet them quite often, and in last circle its devestating.
Its not the start of the game that is a problem, my problem is when they get everything and they have everything, the supply drop weapons ruin the "grenade" balance they added a while back, so now the people with supply drop weapons use the old greenade meta, being fuse or not. This is a problem in my eyes. I know if I pick up an alternater or spitfire I make sure to pick up 4-5 gremades to boot myself, I have no problems hitting people with frags, event if they have trails, check youtube there are some awsome guide on how to make frags extremely deadly even for preds.
